Chapter 3, Problem 11PP
The game of Pig is a simple two player dice game in which the first player to reach 100 or more points wins. Players take turns. On each turn a player rolls a six-sided die:
- If the player rolls a 2-6 then he or she can either
— ROLL AGAIN or
— HOLD. At this point the sum of all rolls made this turn is added to the player’s total score and it becomes the other player’s turn.
- If the player rolls a 1 then the player loses his or her turn. The player gets no new points and it becomes the opponent’s turn.
If a player reaches 100 or more points after holding then the player wins.
Write a
int humanTurn (int humanTota1Score) ;
int computerTurn ( int computerTota1Score) ;
These functions should perform the necessary logic to handle a single turn for either the computer or the human. The input parameter is the total score for the human or computer. The functions should return the turn total to be added to the total score upon completion of the turn. For example, if the human rolls a 3 and 6 and then holds, then humanTurn should return 9. However, if the human rolls a 3 and 6 and then a 1, then the function should return 0.

In the Dice Roll game, the player begins with a score of 1000. The player is prompted for the numberof points to risk and a second prompt asks the player to choose either high or low. The player rollstwo dice and the outcome is compared to the player’s choice of high or low. If the dice total is between2 and 6 inclusive, then it is considered “low”. A total between 8 and 12 inclusive is “high”. A total of7 is neither high nor low, and the player loses the points at risk. If the player had called correctly, thepoints at risk are doubled and added to the total points. For a wrong call, the player loses the points atrisk. Create a DiceRollGame application that uses a DRPlayer object based on this specification. TheDRPlayer object should have two Die member variables that represent the dice. The Die class shoulduse a random number generator to determine the outcome in a roll() method. Application outputshould look similar to:
he Dice game of “Pig” can be played with the following rules.
Roll two six-sided dice. Add the face values together.
Choose whether to roll the dice again or pass the dice to your opponent.
If you pass, then you get to bank any points earned on your turn. Those points become permanent. If you roll again, then add your result to your previous score, but you run the risk of losing all points earned since your opponent had rolled.
Continue to roll as much as you want. However, once a “1” comes up on either die, your score is reduced to 0, leaving you only with points that you have previously "banked." Furthermore, you must pass the dice to your opponent.
The first person to 100 points is the winner.
When a player rolls two dice, the possible outcomes are as follows:
Die #2 Roll
Roll a 1
Roll a 2
Roll a 3

The Penny Pitch game is popular in amusement parks. Pennies are tossed onto aboard that has certain areas marked with different prizes. For example:
The prizes available on this board are puzzle, game, ball, poster, and doll. At the end ofthe game, if all of the squares that say BALL are covered by a penny, the player gets theball. This is also true for the other prizes. The board is made up of 25 squares (5 x 5).Each prize appears on three randomly chosen squares so that 15 squares contain prizes.Create a penny_pitch application that displays a Penny Pitch board (use [ and ] toindicate squares) with prizes randomly placed and then simulates ten pennies being
randomly pitched onto the board. After the pennies have been pitched, the applicationshould display a message indicating which prizes have been won, it any.

- Stick or roll is a game involving two players, A and B, and a die with four faces (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4). The faces are equally likely to occur when the die is rolled. Player A rolls the die once and sticks with that number as the score or rolls it again and scores the sum of the two numbers. • If A's score is greater than 4 then A loses. • If A's score is 4 then A wins. If A's score is less than 4, then B rolls the die once and sticks with that number as the score or rolls it again and scores the sum of the two numbers. • If B's score is greater than 4 then B loses. • If B's score is 4 or less and equal to A's or less, then B loses. • If B's score is 4 or less and greater than A's, then B wins. Player B sticks on the first roll if that number wins and rolls again if it doesn't win and it is possible to win with a second roll. Some example games might be: • A rolls a 2, chooses to roll again and rolls a 3. A's score is then 5 so A loses and B wins. * A rolls a 2 and chooses not to roll…arrow_forwardStick or roll is a game involving two players, A and B, and a die with four faces (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4).

- Suppose you can buy chocolate bars from a vending machine for $1 each.Inside every chocolate bar is a coupon. You can redeem 7 coupons for 1chocolate bar from the machine.For example, if you have $20, you can initially buy 20 chocolate bars.This gives you 20 coupons. You can redeem 14 coupons for 2 additionalchocolate bars. These 2 chocolate bars have 2 more coupons, so you now have atotal of 8 coupons. This gives you enough to redeem for 1 final chocolate bar.Write a recursive function that would accept the amount of dollars andcoupons as its parameters and output the total number of chocolate bars thatcan be bought (including those redeemed via coupons).Write a test program in C++that would allow the user to enter amount of dollarsand then use the recursive function to compute the number of chocolate barsthe user can buy, and output the number to the screen.arrow_forwardThe game of "23" is a two-player game that begins with a pile of 23 toothpicks. 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_forwarda) In the Hi-Lo game, the player begins with a score of 1000.

The game of Pig The game of Pig is a dice game with simple rules: Two players race to reach 100 points. Each turn, a player repeatedly rolls a die until either a 1 ("pig") is rolled or the player holds and scores the sum of the rolls (i.e. the turn total). At any time during a player's turn, the player is faced with two decisions: roll - if the player rolls 1: the player scores nothing and it becomes the opponents turn. 2 - 6: the number is added to the player's turn total and the player's turn continues. hold - The turn total is added to the player's score and it becomes the opponent's turn. This game is a game of probability. Players can use their knowledge of probabilities to make an educated game decision. Assignment specifications Hold-at-20 means that the player will choose to roll continually roll a die until they reach 20 or more or until they are forced to quit because they rolled a pig.

- Idiot’s Delight is a fairly simple game of solitaire, yet it is difficult to win. The goal is to draw all of the cards from the deck, and end up with no cards left in your hand. You will run through the deck of cards one time. Start by dealing 4 cards to your hand. You will always look at the last 4 cards in your hand. If the ranks of the “outer” pair (1st and 4th) are the same, discard all four cards. Otherwise, if the suits of the “inner” pair (2nd and 3rd) are the same, discard those 2 cards only. If you have less than 4 cards, draw enough to have 4 cards in your hand. If the deck is empty, the game is over. Your score will be the number of cards that remain in your hand. Like in golf, the lower the score the better. Create a new Python module in a file named “idiots_delight.py”. Add a function called deal_hand that creates a standard deck of cards, deals out a single hand of 4 cards and returns both the hand and the deck.
