Hangman Game Gaming Project in C++

Explanation:

  1. Display Word (displayWord):
    • Shows the current state of the word with correctly guessed letters and underscores for unguessed letters.
  2. Play Hangman (playHangman):
    • Initializes the guessed vector to track guessed letters and attempts to the maximum number of wrong guesses allowed.
    • Loops until the player either guesses the word or runs out of attempts.
    • Checks if the guessed letter has been guessed before and updates the state of the word accordingly.
    • Deducts an attempt for incorrect guesses and informs the player of their remaining attempts.
    • Ends the game if the player has guessed all letters or exhausted attempts, displaying the outcome.
  3. Main Function (main):
