Download scrambled.py and halloween.txt. The file scrambled.pyalready has the print_banner and the load_words functions. Thefunction print_banner simply prints “scrambled” banner. Thefunction load_words load the list of scrambled words-answer pairsfrom the file and return a tuple of two lists. The first list isthe scrambled words and the second is the list of the answers. Yourjob is the complete the main function so that the game works asshown in the sample run.

Optional Challenge: The allowed numberof guess is equal to the length of the word. Print hints such asbased on the number of guess. If it’s the first guess, provides nohint. If it’s the second guess, provides the first letter of theanswer. If it’s the third guess, provides the first and secondletter of the correct answer. Also, make sure the same word is notselect twice. Once all words have been used, the game should telluser that all words have been used and terminate.
