ok.. so im trying to make a function to find a par of cards with the same suit value for a game of 5 card poker. Here is what i have so far:
my main:
int main (void)
{
/* 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"};
Card hand1[5];
/* initalize deck array */
int deck[4][13] = {0};
srand ((unsigned) time (NULL)); /* see random-number generator */
shuffle (deck);
deal (deck, face, suit, hand1);
return 0;
}
my functions:
#include "function.h"
/* shuffle cards in deck */
void shuffle (int wDeck[][13])
{
int row = 0; /* row number */
int column = 0; /*column number */
int card = 0; /* card counter */
/* for each of the 52 cards, choose slot of deck randomly */
for (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);
/* place card number in chosen slot of deck */
wDeck[row][column] = card;
}
}
/* deal cards in deck */
void deal (const int wDeck[][13], const char *wFace[], const char *wSuit[], Card hand[])
{
int row = 0; /* row number */
int column = 0; /*column number */
int card = 0; /* card counter */
/* deal each of the 52 cards */
for (card = 1; card <= 5; card++)
{
/* loop through rows of wDeck */
for (row = 0; row <= 3; row++)
{
/* loop through columns of wDeck for current row */
for (column = 0; column <= 12; column++)
{
/* if slot contains current card, display card */
if (wDeck[row][column] == card)
{
printf ("%5s of %-8s%c", wFace[column], wSuit[row], card % 2 == 0 ? '\n' : '\t');
hand[card-1].card_num = card;
hand[card-1].face = column;
hand[card-1].suit = row;
}
}
}
}
}
and the header file:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
typedef struct card
{
int card_num;
int suit;
int face;
} Card;
void shuffle (int wDeck[][13]);
void deal (const int wDeck[][13], const char *wFace[], const char *wSuit[], Card hand[]);
ANY help is appreciated.
