I have been trying to store the values of card face value into an array called faceValue but I don't know how to do this. I've created the array and placed in public in my h.file (char faceValue[5];) but trying to link it to *face in the function deal is where I'mhaving trouble. Could someone look at what I've done and tell me what I'm doing wrong.
void DeckOfCards::deal()
{
// initialize suit array
static const char *suit[ 4 ] =
{ "Hearts", "Diamonds", "Clubs", "Spades" };
// initialize face array
static const char *face[ 13 ] =
{ "Ace", "Deuce", "Three", "Four", "Five", "Six", "Seven",
"Eight", "Nine", "Ten", "Jack", "Queen", "King" };
// for showing fist five cards dealt
for ( int card = 1; card <= 5; card++ )
{
// loop through rows of deck
for ( int row = 0; row <= 3; row++ )
{
// loop through columns of deck for current row
for ( int column = 0; column <= 12; column++ )
{
// if slot contains current card, display card
if ( deck[ row ][ column ] == card )
{
cout << setw( 5 ) << right << face[ column ]
<< " of " << setw( 8 ) << left << suit[ row ]
<< ( card % 2 == 0 ? '\n' : '\t' );
} // end if
} // end innermost for
} // end inner for
} // end outer for
} // end function deal
int main()
{
DeckOfCards deckOfCards; // create DeckOfCards object
deckOfCards.shuffle(); // shuffle the cards in the deck
deckOfCards.deal(); // deal the cards in the deck
deckOfCards.faceValue = *face;// palces value of *face into array faceValue
deckOfCards.pair(); // displays text if hand holds a pair
return 0; // indicates successful termination
} // end main
