Program to allow user to solve a coded word puzzle. Will allow the user to
enter and delete letter pairings and substitutions. Program will load
words.txt file which contains the words. Program will loads clues.txt which
contains clues to solve the puzzle. Program will display the list of 10 words
with the substitions input by the user. Program will allow the user to keep
trying until the code is broken. Program will check the users list of words
against the external file solved.txt and displays the appropriate success or
fail message.

# For this first part i will be developing the part of the program that opens th
e
# Words.txt file for the user to use.

print("Here Is The Contents Of The Words.Txt File...")
