Hi everyone,
This is my first post, I just started to study coding and this is my first code.
This is a quiz contains a text with five spaces, the user has 5 tries for each space to enter the correct answer and if the user enters the correct answer the program will replace the space with the correct word. Every thing works well unless if the user enters a wrong answer 4 times and on the 5th try a right answer, the program stopped and exit.
Please help me to solve this problem.
