This is part of my hangman simulation in C++. If you compile and run it and type "Easy," the code should run. If you run it though, the body of the hangman doesn't align when you guess wrong. Could you help me with that and implement an if statement to repeat the program if user wants to play again
Hello, This is part of my hangman simulation in C++.
If you compile and run it and type "Easy," the code should run.
If you run it though, the body of the hangman doesn't align when you guess wrong. Could you help me with that and implement an if statement to repeat the program if user wants to play again?
