## PART 10: Simple Game ###
### --- CODEBREAKER --- ###
## --Nope--Close--Match--##
###########################

# It's time to actually make a simple command line game so put together everything
# you've learned so far about Python. The game goes like this:

# 1. The computer will think of 3 digit number that has no repeating digits.
# 2. You will then guess a 3 digit number
# 3. The computer will then give back clues, the possible clues are:
#
#     Close: You've guessed a correct number but in the wrong position
#     Match: You've guessed a correct number in the correct position
#     Nope: You haven't guess any of the numbers correctly
#
# 4. Based on these clues you will guess again until you break the code with a
#    perfect match, the game will report "CODE CRACKED"!

# There are a few things you will have to discover for yourself for this game!
# Here are some useful hints:
