Question

I have this program using class that plays the game hangman the only thing that I need to make is a file or a function that will store the 10 words ( hey, ace, cow, fix, fly, fun, ice, max, new, sam) when the user starts the game the words most be chosen randomly not in any order

C++ code:

// Header of the class
#ifndef Hangman_H
#define Hangman_H
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <string.h>
using namespace std;
class Hangman
{
private:
   char letter;
   string word;
public:
   Hangman();
   Hangman(char);
   ~Hangman();
   void setLetter(char);
   char getLetter();
   void setWord();
   string getWord();
   void compare();

};
#endif

// Definition of the class

#include "Hangman.h"
Hangman::Hangman()
{
   letter = '\0';
   word = "";
}
Hangman::Hangman(char l)
{
   letter = l;
}
Hangman::~Hangman()
{
   delete &letter;
   delete &word;
}
void Hangman::setLetter(char l)
{
   letter = l;
}
char Hangman::getLetter()
{
   return letter;
}
void Hangman::setWord()
{
   word = "hey";
}
string Hangman::getWord()
{
   return word;
}
void Hangman::compare()
{
   string w;
   int i = 8;
   char w1[4], l, y[4] = { '_','_','_' };
   setWord();
   w = getWord();
   strcpy_s(w1, w.c_str());
   do
   {
       cout << "Enter a letter: ";
       cin >> l;
       setLetter(l);
       if (letter == w1[0])
       {
           y[0] = letter;
           cout << y << endl;
       }
       else if (letter == w1[1])
       {
           y[1] = letter;
           cout << y << endl;
       }
       else if (letter == w1[2])
       {
           y[2] = letter;
           cout << y << endl;
       }
       else
       {
           i--;
           cout << "Letter does not match!\nChances left: " << i << endl;
       }
       if (y[0] == w1[0] && y[1] == w1[1] && y[2] == w1[2])
           break;
   } while (i > 0);
   if (i > 0)
       cout << "Congrats on the win!";
   else
       cout << "You lost";
}

// Main

#include "Hangman.h"

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
   int x;
   Hangman hM;
   do

       cout << "Welcome to Hangman!\n";
       cout << "The game is handled from within the class, so have fun!\n";
       hM.compare();
