*In Progress* (Yes, that means it's In Progress!) Hangman Game - PART 2

Today, I attempted to read words from a file and put them into a char array. I wanted to randomly select one of these words and use it in the game. Unfortunately, C is just doing my head in because it is, like, soooooooooo difficult to read lines from a file! Java is much easier in this way.... *Sigh* :(

I WILL TRY TO GET THIS CODE WORKING OVER THE WEEKEND AND FINISH IT NEXT LESSON.

/* This is a simple hangman game console application. The user is required to input a letter when prompted. If that letter is part of the word that the user needs to guess, the user is notified of this and is asked to guess another letter.
* The user has 10 guesses to correctly guess all the letters in the word. If that limit is succeeded, the user has failed and is notified of this. If the user succeeds, the program will print a message of congratulations.

BY THE WAY, IF ANYONE HAS ANY TIPS ON HOW I COULD IMPROVE THE CODE IN TERMS OF SIMPLIFYING IT OR MAKING IT MORE CONSISTENT, PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS POST!! In return, I will +1 and follow your blog and you will live your wonderful life knowing that a sad, lonely geek has acknowledged your contribution to his program. :)
