If the user can guess infinitely, then an infinite loop (or infinite recursion) seems to be adequate.

What is the expected operation of the program?
The code seems to contain:

  • You have a one (?) character long Word
  • You ask the user to quess(guesschar).
  • If the quesschar equals to Word, you exit the program(?)
  • If the guesschar is not 1 charachter long, you ask for another guesschar.
  • If the guesschar is 1 charachter long and does not equeal to Word you exit a program

This does not seem to make sense at all....
