Write a program that does the following: 1. prompts the user to guess a letter in a hard-coded word 2. validates the input 3. adds the letter to a two-dimensional array that stores the guessed letter (string) and the number of times that letter has been guessed (int). If the letter is already in the list, then the list should be updated accordingly (i.e., no duplicate letters in the list!) The list will follow this format: [[guessed letter 1, number of guesses],[guessed letter2, number of guesses],...] Example: [[“a”, 3], [“e”, 2], [“c”, 1]] Hint : this will require iterating over the list, remember that the character is always in position [x][0] 4. check if the character is in the word 5. outputs if the character is in the word and the number of times this character has been guessed 6. the program should continue to prompt the user until they enter ‘quit’ Output example: #the word is kookaburra Enter a letter: a The letter ‘a’ is in the word Number of times guessed the letter ‘a’: 1 Enter a letter: a The letter ‘a’ is in the word Number of times guessed the letter ‘a’: 2 Enter a letter: c The letter ‘c’ is not in the word Number of times guessed the letter ‘c’: 1 Enter a letter: quit The word was kookaburra Goodbye

Question

Write a program that does the following:

1. prompts the user to guess a letter in a hard-coded word

2. validates the input

3. adds the letter to a two-dimensional array that stores the guessed letter (string) and the number of times that letter has been guessed (int). If the letter is already in the list, then the list should be updated accordingly (i.e., no duplicate letters in the list!)

The list will follow this format:

[[guessed letter

1, number of guesses],[guessed letter2, number of guesses],...]

Example:

[[“a”, 3], [“e”, 2], [“c”, 1]]

Hint

: this will require iterating over the list, remember that the character is always in position [x][0]

4. check if the character is in the word

5. outputs if the character is in the word and the number of times this character has been guessed

6. the program should continue to prompt the user until they enter ‘quit’

Output example:

#the word is kookaburra

Enter a letter: a

The letter ‘a’ is in the word

Number of times guessed the letter ‘a’: 1

Enter a letter: a

The letter ‘a’ is in the word

Number of times guessed the letter ‘a’: 2

Enter a letter: c

The letter ‘c’ is not in the word

Number of times guessed the letter ‘c’: 1

Enter a letter: quit

The word was kookaburra

Goodbye
