Lab 3

CS321L Winter 2023, Professor Christopher Diggins

Overview
This lab involves modifying a Blackjack game created using classes. See:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackjack for the rules of Blackjack.

The initial code provided can be found at: https://github.com/cdiggins/cs321/tree/main/code-


examples/Blackjack.

The object of the game is to win money by creating card totals higher than those of the dealer's hand
but not exceeding 21, or by stopping at a total in the hope that the dealer will bust. On their turn,
players choose to "hit" (take a card) or "stand" (end their turn and stop without taking a card).

Face cards are worth 10, and Aces are worth either 1 or 11, depending on what is more advantageous
for the hand evaluation. A hand evaluated with an Ace worth 11 is called a “soft” hand.

In our version of Blackjack:

• We will use a single deck of cards.


• Players cannot split.
• Dealer stands on a soft 17 or higher, or hits automatically.

The code provided has a few problems:

• All fields are public (they should all be private)


• The player can bet more money than they have.

Tasks:

• Make all fields private.


• Add new functions, constructors, and/or properties to allow the functionality to work as before.
• Prevent the user from betting more money than they have.

Submission:

• The project file and source code of the game.


• Play three rounds of the game. Put the output in a text-file: output.txt.

Grading

• 2 points: all fields are private, and the code still works.
• 1 point: user can’t bet more money than they have.
• 1 point: code follows the coding guidelines and is easy to read and understand.
