Question

Create a new program, WordGuessingGame. Using a while loop, create a game for the user. The game requires the user to guess a secret word. The game does not end until the user guesses the word. After they win the game, they are prompted to choose to play again. The secret word that user must guess is "valentine". It is a case-sensitive analysis

With each guess...

• If the guess does not have an equal number of characters, tell the user if it is too long or too short
• If the guess has the same number of characters, tell the user how many characters are correct
  • The letter must be in the same position to be considered correct

    Update your Word guessing game to check for how letters are correct regardless of length or position.

    You have all the same requirements as before except with each guess the user it told if any of the letters are in the word and how many are in the correct position.

    Sample output with secret word valentine:

    Welcome to the word guessing game.
    Guess a word: borp
    The word is longer
    Correct letters: 0
    Correct position: 0
    Incorrect. Guess again: turtle
    The word is longer
    Correct letters: 4
    Correct position: 0
    Incorrect. Guess again: val
    The word is longer
    Correct letters: 3
    Correct position: 3
    //program continues from here...
    

    Note that if a letter is in a guess multiple times you are allowed to count them as separate letters (e.g. both 't's in turtle are considered correct even though there's only 1 't' in "valentine")

    **I did the first part. I need help with the CORRECT LETTERS and CORRECT POSITION
