    copied!<p>I wrote a code for a simple card dealing program where you can input the number of players that are playing and it will output two cards for each of them plus 5 (the river, flop etc.)</p> <p>I'm wondering how I can make the m not be able to equal 1, so that if there if the user inputs one it shows an error.</p> <p>Also, I'm wondering if there's any way to separate each players cards and the 5 cards so it's more visually appealing and give them titles lie "Player 1", "Flop"...</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <pre><code>public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { BufferedReader in; int x; String playerx; in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); System.out.println("How many players are playing?"); playerx = in.readLine(); //user input for menu selection x = Integer.valueOf(playerx).intValue(); // create a deck of 52 cards and suit and rank sets String[] suit = { "Clubs", "Diamonds", "Hearts", "Spades" }; String[] rank = { "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "Jack", "Queen", "King", "Ace" }; //initialize variables int suits = suit.length; int ranks = rank.length; int n = suits * ranks; //counter (5 house cards and 2 cards per player entered) int m = 5+(x*2); // initialize deck String[] deck = new String[n]; for (int i = 0; i &lt; ranks; i++) { for (int j = 0; j &lt; suits; j++) { deck[suits*i + j] = rank[i] + " of " + suit[j]; } } // create random 5 cards for (int i = 0; i &lt; m; i++) { int r = i + (int) (Math.random() * (n-i)); String t = deck[r]; deck[r] = deck[i]; deck[i] = t; } // print results for (int i = 0; i &lt; m; i++){ System.out.println(deck[i]); } } </code></pre> <p>}</p>
