GUESSING GAME - MVC JAVASERVLET

AIM:

To create a MVC architecture for guessing game using JavaServlet.

ALGORITHM:

Step 1:Start

Step 2: First create a new directory named as GuessingGame in Tomcat 6.0->webapps.

Step 3: Create a directory in WEB-INF named as Guessing.In that,create directory

Step 4: Now create Info.java inside the Guessing dir. The Info.java holds two
properties attempts and message. Compile this file and generate Info.class file.

Step 5: In WEB-INF dir, create the java servlets named as Guess.java and
GuessAction.java. Compile these files and generate class files.

Step 6: Inside GuessingGame directory, create files named as start.jsp, continue

Step 7: Guess.java servlet initialize the target value to guess by the user, sets session
variables and transfer the control into the start.jsp page.

Step 8: the start.jsp page, include the file GuessRequest.html.In this, it gets the value
from the user and user to the GuessAction.java servlet.

Step 9: The GuessAction servlet compares the guess value with target, if it is low then
target, it sets the message “Aim Higher”, else “Aim Lower”.

Step 10: If guess=target, then the control transfer into GuessingOver, otherwise
transfer the control into conitueGuessing.jsp. In continueGuessing, it directs user into
GuessRequest.html and repeat step 8 to 9.

Step 11: In GuessingOver, It displays the message “Congrats”. If user wants to

Step 12: Stop.

//Servlet

Number of attempts

<jsp:getProperty name="info" property="attempts"/><BR>

<jsp:getProperty name="info" property="message"/>

<%@ include file="GuessRequest.html" %>

<jsp:useBean id="info" scope="session" class="Guessing.Info" />

Number of Attempts

<jsp:getProperty name="info" property="message"/><BR>

Would you like to start a new game?

<FORM action="Guess" method="POST">

<INPUT type="submit" value="Yes"/>

<INPUT type="submit" value="No" onclick="window.close()"/>

</FORM>
OUTPUT:
RESULT
Thus the Guessing Game using MVC architecture in Java servlet has been
created and executed successfully.
