A Game of 21
For this assignment, you will write a
Here are some suggestions for the game’s design:
- Each round of the game is performed as an iteration of a loop that repeats as long as the player agrees to roll the dice, and the player’s total does not exceed 21.
- At the beginning of each round, the program will ask the users whether they want to roll the dice to accumulate points.
- During each round, the program simulates the rolling of two six-sided dice. It rolls the dice first for the computer, then it asks the user if he or she wants to roll. (Use the Die class demonstrated in this chapter to simulate the dice).
- The loop keeps a running total of both the computer and the user's points.
- The computer’s total should remain hidden until the loop has finished.
- After the loop has finished, the computer’s total is revealed, and the player with the most points without going over 21 wins.

- FaceUp card game In this assignment we will implement a made-up card game we'll call FaceUp. When the game starts, you deal five cards face down. Your goal is to achieve as high a score as possible. Your score only includes cards that are face up. Red cards (hearts and diamonds) award positive points, while black cards (clubs and spades) award negative points. Cards 2-10 have points worth their face value. Cards Jack, Queen, and King have value 10, and Ace is 11. The game is played by flipping over cards, either from face-down to face-up or from face-up to face-down. As you play, you are told your total score (ie, total of the face-up cards) and the total score of the cards that are face down. The challenge is that you only get up to a fixed number of flips and then the game is over. Here is an example of the output from playing the game: FACE-DOWN | FACE-DOWN | FACE-DOWN | FACE-DOWN | FACE-DOWN Face up total: 0 Face down total: -5 Number of flips left: 5 Pick a card to flip between 1…arrow_forwardFaceUp card game In this assignment we will implement a made-up card game we'll call FaceUp.

A student is blindfolded and pulls 10 fish out of the tub. The student removes the blindfold, writes down how many of each color fish she got, and then puts the fish back in the tub. Each student takes a turn. The results are shown in the table. Display these data in a dot plot. Write and answer (to the extent possible) at least three questions about the data display in part (a); include at least one question at each of the three graph-reading levels discussed in the reading.arrow_forward
- Assignment Description This program will simulate part of the game of Yahtzee! This is a dice game that involves rolling five dice and scoring points based on what show up on those five dice. The players would record their scores on a score card, and then total them up, and the player with the larger total wins the game. A Yahtzee score card has two portions: The upper portion has spaces for six scores, obtained by adding up all of the 1's, 2's, 3's, etc. The lower portion has special scores for various combinations: Three of a kind -- at least 3 dice are the same number;the score is the sum of all five dice Four of a kind -- at least 4 dice are the same number;the score is the sum of all five dice Small straight -- four consecutive numbers are represented, e.g. 2345;the score is 25 points Large straight -- five consecutive numbers are represented, e.g. 23456;the score is 30 points Full House -- three of one kind, two of another; the score is 30 points Yahtzee! -- five of a kind; the…arrow_forward(Simulation) Write a program to simulate the roll of two dice. If the total of the two dice is 7 or 11, you win; otherwise, you lose. Embellish this program as much as you like, with betting, different odds, different combinations for win or lose, stopping play when you have no money left or reach the house limit, displaying the dice, and so forth. (Hint: Calculate the dots showing on each die with the expression dots=(int)(6.0randomnumber+1), where the random number is between 0 and 1.)arrow_forwardThis is a picture of the assignment.arrow_forward
- CIS 2275 C++ Programming Part I Program 6 Trivia Game In this program, create a simple trivia game for two players. It will work like this: Starting with player 1, each player gets a turn at answering five trivia questions. There are a total of 10 questions. When a question is displayed, four possible answers are also displayed. Only one of the answers is correct, and if the player selects the correct answer, they earn a point. After the answers have been selected for all of the questions, the program displays the number of points earned by each player and declare the player with the highest number of points to be the winner. The players will have the option of playing another round. The flow of the program will be: 1. Show the Header information. 2. Create an array of Question structs. 3. Read the questions from the text file. 4. If the questions were properly read, start a do-while loop. 5.

First, the user will give the starting X and Y positions of the forester unit as well as its base speed (all ints). Then, the starting X and Y positions of the desert corps unit as well as its base speed (all ints). Finally, the target X and Y positions (both ints) and the terrain type (std::string). Speeds are given as distance traveled in one full day (i.e., 24 hours) and is affected by the terrain type using a multiplier over the base speed. Also, after 1 full day, each unit rests for a certain number of hours. Speed multiplier and rest amount of each type of unit depending on the terrain type are as below. Speed Multiplier Rest Duration After 1 day Terrain type Forester Desert Corps Forester Desert Corps Forest 1.3 0.6 4 12 Desert 0.4 1.2 15 6 Hills 0.7 0.8 6 8 Others 1.0 0.8 8 6 After getting all this…arrow_forward

When the program begins, a random number in the range of 0 through 2 is generated. If the number is 0, then the computer has chosen rock. If the number is 1, then the computer has chosen paper. If the number is 2, then the computer has chosen scissors. (Do not display the computer choice yet.) 3. The user enters his or her choice of "rock", "paper", or "scissors" at the keyboard. You should use 1 for rock, 2 for paper, and 3 for scissors. Internally, you can store 0, 1, and 2 as the user choice, to match with the above schema. 4. Both user and computer choices are displayed. 5. A winner is selected according to the following rules: If one player chooses rock and the other player chooses scissors, then rock wins.

Create a Student class and use the provided UML diagram to code the instance fields, constructors and methods. Note: The module mark is the average of the participation mark and the examination mark - calculate this using the calcModuleMark() method. The determineStNumber() method should compile a student number with the first 3 letters of the student's name, a '#' symbol, and a 3-digit randomly generated number (make use of a for-loop to concatenate these 3-digits). The stNumber data field should be set in the constructor by calling the determineStNumber() method. The toString() method must compile a string to display the student number, participation mark, examination mark, and module mark, formatted in table format.

Players take turns, withdrawing either 1, 2 or 3 toothpicks at a time. The player to withdraw the last toothpick loses the game. Write a human vs. computer program that plays "23". The human should always move first. When it is the computer's turn it should play according to the following rules: If there are more than 7 toothpicks left, then the computer should withdraw a random number of toothpicks (from 1 to 3). Use the rand() function, as demonstrated in class to produce this number.. If there are 2, 3 or 4 toothpicks left, then the computer should withdraw enough toothpicks to leave 1. If there is 1 toothpick left, then the computer has to take it and loses. When the human player enters the number of toothpicks to withdraw, the program should perform input validation. Make sure that the entered number is between 1 and 3 (inclusive) and that the player is not trying to withdraw more toothpicks…arrow_forward
