Mastermind

This game looks best on a dark terminal background, but should work on lighter ones with minimum modification.

How to run the game:

• Clone the repo
• cd mastermind
• python3.9 -m venv ./venv
• source venv/bin/activate
• pip install -r requirements/base.txt
• python mastermind.py

How to run the tests:

• source venv/bin/activate
• pip install -r requirements/dev.txt
• pytest .

Rules of mastermind:

• You'll be asked how long of a sequence to generate.
  • The standard game is 4.
• You'll be asked how many guesses you should be allowed.
  • The standard game is 10.
• Your goal is to guess the sequence in that number of guesses.
• The game will ask you for your color sequence one at a time.
• It will ask you to confirm your guess before scoring it.

Scoring:

• A green peg means you have the correct color in the correct position.

• A yellow peg means you have the correct color in the wrong position.

• The scoring pegs are sorted. They don't correlate to the position of your colors.

  Examples:

  In a 4 sequence game:

  • 4 yellow pegs means you have all the colors, but in the wrong positions.
  • 2 green and 2 yellow pegs means you have all the colors right, but two are in the wrong position.
