Maybe look at other card games on scratch to try to get ideas.

i did but the closest this was video poker and when i took apart the code it was nothing like what im required to do

Well, you want to have rankings to know which card is better, right?

Wait. Which game are you playing?

5 card stud i need to know which hand is better

Oops. Sorry that my computer suddenly shut off.

Okay, I can help you with this.

You just need to compare the rankings. You see "hand rankings overall" page under your "hints" excel file? Just determine which one of those several ones it is. If the two hands are the same, then you determine the high card.

If you want to learn how to do it, check out the "algorithm" page under the "hints" file, or ask me and I'll explain it to you.

right now i have variables to determine how many of each suit the hand hasbut i dont understand what a hisogram is and how i would implmentt it

kayybee · 2011-09-29 23:12:42

What you need to do is find a way to determine which cards the user has.

I would put each card in the list as #suit.
Clubs=1, diamonds=2, hearts=3...
Oh, and 10 is A, J is B, Q is C, and King is D.

So the Queen of spades would be C4

That way you can determine, let's say... the number of spades. You just check the second letter of each card and see if it's a four.

That's the easiest way to make a histogram.

So, histograms are to determine how many cards of each there are.

When is this due, btw?
