BITSnPieces
This application is based on the classicnumberguessing game and a namesake cows and bulls. Here though,the gamehas been extended with word guessing in addition to thenumberguessing.Guess words/numbers in minimum possible turns.The basic idea is to guess a word/number either selected bytheapp(in single player mode) or the other player(in pass n playmode)in an iterative way.Legend:Cow is a letter in the original word but entered in thewrongposition by the playerBull is a letter in the original word and in therightposition.Quick play will take the preferences the user sets inthepreferences page. Defaults are set to playing Numbers inEasymode.Let's say the player is supposed to guess the word "play":1) Player will be presented with 12 letters to choose hisfourletter guess of which the letters p,l,a,y will be part of andnotnecessarily in order.2) Player tries the word "pals" by tapping(in the same order)theappropriate icons in the pool. As soon as the fourth letteristapped, the guessed word will be evaluated.3) The evaluation will be logged in the results pane againsttheturn #. Since P is the first letter of both the guess andtheoriginal word to be guessed( in other words the letter P ispresentin the word to be guessed and is placed correctly that isthe firstletter of the word), it is considered a bull. As for theletter "A"in pals, the letter "A" is present in the word "Play" inthe thirdposition whereas in "pals" it's position is second.Similarly forthe letter "L". The letter "S" is not present in"Play" so it isneither a cow nor a bull.4) In easy mode, the result pane will show the cows as Reditalicsand bulls in Green bold and in grey otherwise. So ,in theabovecase "PALS" will be displayed in the result area with P inGreenbold, L and A in red italics and S in grey.In other modes, only the number of cows and bulls in theenteredword will be displayed.5)The players can take as many turns as they like before theyguessthe actual word/number to be guessed.
