OK so I need to make a card dealing program that takes random cards from a deck and dispenses a 5 card poker hand, but i also have to right functions to tell if its a flush straight royal flush, etc... I have no Idea what to do after this.
// Card shuffling dealing program.
#include <iostream>
using std::cout;
using std::left;
using std::right;
#include <iomanip>
using std::setw;
#include <cstdlib> // prototypes for rand and srand
#include <ctime> // prototype for time
// prototypes
void shuffle( int [][ 13 ] );
void deal( const int [][ 13 ], const char *[], const char *[] );
int main()
{
// initialize suit array
const char *suit[ 4 ] =
{ "Hearts", "Diamonds", "Clubs", "Spades" };
// initialize face array
const char *face[ 13 ] =
{ "Ace", "Deuce", "Three", "Four",
"Five", "Six", "Seven", "Eight",
"Nine", "Ten", "Jack", "Queen", "King" };
// initialize deck array
int deck[ 4 ][ 13 ] = { 0 };
srand( time( 0 ) ); // seed random number generator
shuffle( deck );
deal( deck, face, suit );
return 0; // indicates successful termination
} // end main
// shuffle cards in deck
void shuffle( int wDeck[][ 13 ] )
{
int row;
int column;
// for each of the 52 cards, choose slot of deck randomly
for ( int card = 1; card <= 52; card++ ) {
// choose new random location until unoccupied slot found
do {
row = rand() % 4;
column = rand() % 13;
} while( wDeck[ row ][ column ] != 0 ); // end do/while
// place card number in chosen slot of deck
wDeck[ row ][ column ] = card;
} // end for
} // end function shuffle
// deal cards in deck
void deal( const int wDeck[][ 13 ], const char *wFace[],
const char *wSuit[] )
{
// for each of the 52 cards
for ( int card = 1; card <= 52; card++ )
// loop through rows of wDeck
for ( int row = 0; row <= 3; row++ )
// loop through columns of wDeck for current row
for ( int column = 0; column <= 12; column++ )
// if slot contains current card, display card
if ( wDeck[ row ][ column ] == card ) {
cout << setw( 5 ) << right << wFace[ column ]
<< " of " << setw( 8 ) << left
<< wSuit[ row ]
<< ( card % 2 == 0 ? '\n' : '\t' );
} // end if
system("pause");
} // end function deal
