Notes
This can be fairly challenging, and may involve researching things we haven't touched on in class.
A helpful snippet of code, to give you an idea of how you might build a deck:
# ... snip
suits = [:hearts, :diamonds, :spades, :clubs]
suits.each do |suit|
(2..10).each do |value|
@cards << Card.new(suit, value)
end
@cards << Card.new(suit, "J")
@cards << Card.new(suit, "Q")
@cards << Card.new(suit, "K")
@cards << Card.new(suit, "A")
end
# ... snip
You don't have to use this snippet directly (and maybe you shouldn't). Also remember you can work together and help each other. Just try not to copy-pasta a solution from The Internet and do not turn in anything that you don't understand.
