In this program you will use the following classes - Card, Deck, Player, Dealer, and Blackjack. The intent of this assignment is for you to simulate a Blackjack game using classes and object-oriented programming similar to your last programming assignment.
class Card (object): ... class Deck (object): ... class Player (object): ... class Dealer (Player): ... class Blackjack (object): ... def main(): ... main()
In Blackjack you want to have a hand value that is closer to 21 than that of the dealer, without going over 21. You are playing strictly against the dealer and not against the other players at the table. The values of the cards are as follows:
The dealer deals two cards to all the players including himself. The players' cards are dealt face up. Only one of the cards of the dealer is face up and the other is face down.
Once the cards are dealt, each player in turn indicates to the dealer how he wishes to play his hand. After each player has finished, the dealer will complete his hand. In a casino the dealer will either pay or collect the players' bets. In your program you will write out whether the players won or lost and whether the dealer won or lost.
The dealer has no choice in how he plays his hand. He must continue to take cards ("hit") until his total is 17 or greater. An Ace in the dealer's hand is always counted as 11 if possible without the dealer going over 21. So if the dealer has (Ace, 9), then his total will be 20 and he stops drawing cards ("stand"). However, if the dealer had (5, 7) and then added an Ace and his hand was (5, 7, Ace) then the total is 13 and so he hits again. Supposing he now he draws a 5, then is hand (5, 7, Ace, 5) totals 18 and he stands.
In the case of the player we have simplified the options that he has. The player can either hit or stand. Doubling or splitting pairs are not options that you will simulate in your program.
Your program will allow anywhere between 1 and 6 players (inclusive). Here is what your output will look like:
Enter number of players: 2 Player 1: 7S 5D - 12 points Player 2: 4H JC - 14 points Dealer: 10D Player 1, do you want to hit? [y / n]: y Player 1: 7S 5D 8H - 20 points Player 1, do you want to hit? [y / n]: n Player 2, do you want to hit? [y / n]: y Player 2: 4H JC 9S - 23 points Dealer: 10D 9C - 19 points Player 1 wins Player 2 loses
The file that you will be turning in will be called Blackjack.py. This is a template of the code. The code is not complete and it was written in part for a single player. I would like you to make modifications to the code so that it follows the specifications. The file will have a header of the following form:
/* File: Blackjack.py Description: Student's Name: Student's UT EID: Course Name: CS 313E Unique Number: 53260 Date Created: Date Last Modified: */
Use the turnin program to submit your Blackjack.py file. The TAs should receive your work by 11 PM on Friday, 08 Feb 2013. We will be looking for clean logic and good documentation. There will be substantial penalties if you do not adhere to the guidelines.
