A Python HTTP server game with 100 rounds, oracle, and move validation.

Features

• 100 Rounds: Numbered 1 to 100
• Unique Codes: Each round has four unique code numbers (A, B, C, D) between 1-10000
• Oracle: Returns the four code numbers hidden among 10,000 random words
• Move Validation: Submit moves to advance through rounds
• Status Tracking: Check current round and win status

Manual Testing

# Check status
curl http://localhost:7978/status

# Get oracle (first few lines)
curl http://localhost:7978/oracle | head -5

# Submit a move
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"A": 1234, "B": 5678, "C": 9012, "D": 3456}' \
  http://localhost:7978/move

Automated Testing

# Run the test client (requires requests library)
python3 test_client.py

Game Rules

1. Each round has four unique code numbers (A, B, C, D)
2. Use the oracle to find the code numbers hidden among random words
3. Submit the correct four numbers to advance to the next round
4. Complete all 100 rounds to win the game
5. Codes are unique across all rounds and regenerated for each new game

Requirements

• Python 3.6+
• No external dependencies (uses only built-in libraries)
• For test client: requests library (pip install requests)
