Explanation:

Color Representation:
- The Color struct represents a color with a name (e.g., “Red”) and an id
  
  (a unique integer corresponding to that color).
Random Color Generation:
- The generateRandomColor function selects a random color from a predefined list of colors. This color is the one that the player needs to guess.
Player Guess:
- The getPlayerGuess function prompts the player to enter their guess by choosing the ID corresponding to the color they think was generated.
Color Display:
- The displayColors function prints out the available colors and their corresponding IDs to the console. This helps the player know which colors they can guess.
Game Loop:
- The game allows the player up to 3 attempts to guess the correct color. After each guess, the program checks if the player’s guess matches the randomly selected color:
  - If correct, the game congratulates the player.
  - If incorrect and attempts remain, the game prompts the player to try again.
  - If all attempts are used without a correct guess, the game reveals the correct color.

Possible Enhancements:

Difficulty Levels: Add more colors and increase the number of guesses for higher difficulty levels.
Visual Representation: If developing in an environment that supports graphics, implement actual color display rather than using text names.
Hint System: Introduce a hint system that narrows down the options after incorrect guesses.
Score Tracking: Track the number of correct guesses over multiple rounds and provide a final score.
