1. array[-1] and string[-1] last letter and last string retrieval

I originally used len(string/array)-1 to retrieve the last letter/string. However this seems more visually appealing but it is questionable whether it is readable

2. Main inside or outside of class

I chose inside however maybe it should be outside of the class as it makes sense to have the main loop there and keep it separate from the object however it is the main controls so I am unsure.

3. play function if,elif,else

the if and elif statement do the same thing, there should be a more efficient way of doing it without separating the action into the function and having both statements

4. if word == ''

Not sure if unorthodox but there should be a better comparison

5. word.lower(), word.strip(), self.currentWord = word

There might be a better way of combining this?

Code Explanation Once run the code should run the main function of the class which will loop over until the user decided to quit by pressing enter (entering an empty string). Otherwise the program should except a string of characters as words. Please note there is no parsing of the data except turning the word into lowercase and removing any additional spaces. The entered word will be checked against an array to see if the two rules match up, if the rules don'y match then the game goes into the 'game over' function which resets the game automatically.

Unorthodox choices:

1. array[-1] and string[-1] last letter and last string retrieval

I originally used len(string/array)-1 to retrieve the last letter/string however this seems move visually appearing but it is questionable whether it is readable

2. Main inside or outsite of class

3. play function if,elif,else

4. if word == ''

5. word.lower(), word.strip() self.currentWord = word

Code Explanation

Once run the code should run the main function of the class which will loop over until the user decided to quit by pressing enter (entering an empty string). Otherwise the program should accept a string of characters as words. Please note there is no parsing of the data except turning the word into lowercase and removing any additional spaces. The entered word will be checked against an array to see if the two rules match up, if the rules don't match then the game goes into the 'game over' function which resets the game automatically.
