}What it's supposed to do is take in a probe. If correct, it says how many probes it took to get the correct answer.
If wrong, it says how many letters were right from the secret word..
I tried compiling and stepping throguh, but it gives me wrong results. For example, I type in a probe, and it prompts me to type in a nother one without any output in between.
ex.
How many rounds do you want to play? 1
Round 1
Probe: aback
Probe: abet
3
Can you see what's wrong?
