Question

Problem 1: Create a card game called flash card using class data structure when each player draws three cards for random numbers (1-4) as Diamond, Spade, Clubs and Hearts respectively and another set of random numbers of card value 1-13. The cardScore is defined as highest (say cardScore =100 for three A s’ (cardValue 1), followed by three Jacks (cardValue 11) (say cardScore 90), followed by three Kings (cardValue 13)(say cardScore =80) and then three Queens (cardValue 12)(say cardScore = 70). Other than the above said combinations the cardScore is defined by the sum of the cardValue of each draw. The player which has the highest score after three draws win. Display the cards drawn by each player and the cardScore and the winner. Write the C++ code and algorithm in words for the following problem (Marks 20)

Answer 1

C++ CODE :

#include<iostream>
#include<time.h>
using namespace std;

class FlashCard {
int cardVariety[3];
int cardValue[3];
int gameScore;
public :
void setcards(int cardVariety[3], int cardValue[3]) {
for (int k = 0; k < 3; ++k) {
this -> cardVariety[k] = cardVariety[k];
this -> cardValue[k] = cardValue[k];
}
}
void totalScore();
int scoreResult();
};

void FlashCard :: totalScore() {
gameScore = 0;
int acefreq = 0;
int jackfreq = 0;
int kingfreq = 0;
int queenfreq = 0;
for (int k = 0; k < 3; ++k) {
if (cardValue[k] == 1) {
acefreq++;
} else if (cardValue[k] == 11) {
jackfreq++;
} else if (cardValue[k] == 13) {
kingfreq++;
} else if (cardValue[k] == 12) {
queenfreq++;
} else
gameScore += cardValue[k];
}
if (acefreq == 3) {
gameScore = 100;
} else if (jackfreq == 3) {
gameScore = 90;
} else if (kingfreq == 3) {
gameScore = 80;
} else if (queenfreq == 3) {
gameScore = 70;
}
  
}

int FlashCard :: scoreResult() {
return gameScore;
}

int main() {
srand(time(NULL));
int numOfPlayers;
  
cout << "Enter the number of Player/s: ";
cin >> numOfPlayers;
  
FlashCard players[numOfPlayers];
  
int Maxiscore = -1, MaxiscorePlayer;
  
for (int py = 0; py < numOfPlayers; ++py) {
cout << "\nThe Generated cards for the player " << py + 1 << " are: \n";
int generatedCardVariety[3];
int generatedCardValue[3];
for (int gameDraw = 0; gameDraw < 3; ++gameDraw) {
generatedCardVariety[gameDraw] = rand() % 4 + 1;
generatedCardValue[gameDraw] = rand() % 13 + 1;
  
if (generatedCardValue[gameDraw] == 1) {
cout << "Ace of ";
}
else if (generatedCardValue[gameDraw] == 11) {
cout << "Jack of ";
}
else if (generatedCardValue[gameDraw] == 13) {
cout << "King of ";
}
else if (generatedCardValue[gameDraw] == 12) {
cout << "Queen of ";
}
else {
cout << generatedCardValue[gameDraw] << " of ";
}
  
if (generatedCardVariety[gameDraw] == 1) {
cout << "Diamonds\n";
} else if (generatedCardVariety[gameDraw] == 2) {
cout << "Spades\n";
} else if (generatedCardVariety[gameDraw] == 3) {
cout << "Clubs\n";
} else {
cout << "Hearts\n";
}
  
}
players[py].setcards(generatedCardVariety, generatedCardValue);
players[py].totalScore();
if (Maxiscore < players[py].scoreResult()) {
Maxiscore = players[py].scoreResult();
MaxiscorePlayer = py + 1;
}
}
cout << "\nThe Max Score is: " << Maxiscore << "\nAnd the game Winner is Player "<< MaxiscorePlayer << "\n";   
}

C++ PROGRAM CODE SCREEN:

C++ PROGRAM OUTPUT:

When the players are 4 :-

ALGORITHM:

• Inside the loop of a program:

      1. Randomly generated 3 numbers within the range of 1-13 for the card value and
      3 numbers for the card variety/type in the range of 1-4
      2. Calculated game score as per the given rules in the question.
      3. Repeated the above steps (1-3) for the second player as well
      4. Updated the card scores for each round for the results.

• At the end of 3 rounds:

      1. Compared the game scores and print the winner based on the maximum score evaluation.
