Hmmm. That's right. Usually it also keeps track of wrong guesses
(separately I assume), so that if the user enters the same wrong guess
twice, that isn't counted against them twice. But there's no sense in
making the poor student put in all these extra features if they aren't
in the actual assignment (execpt perhaps for extra credit).

Errr...let's let the poor guy get used to simple data structures before
we throw him into Win32 GUI programming, huh? :-)
