copied!<p>I some how got it working but I still have a problem with the sorting and making pairs so that I can determine the winner.</p> <p>Pair them(Pairs are cards with the same value.)e.g Ace of Hearts & Ace of Spades make a pair. I then count those pairs. hand with highest pairs wins.</p> <p>This was what I was trying for the pairing but.. am still rellyy stuck with how I start the comparison to make the pairing.</p> <p>This is the way I expect the results to be for every hand:</p> <p>Hand 1: Six of Spades, is Black Seven of Diamonds, is Red Eight of Spades, is Black Ten of Hearts, is Red Queen of Spades, is Black Number of pairs: 0</p> <p>Hand 2: Three of Spades, is Black Five of Diamonds, is Red Five of Clubs, is Black Nine of Diamonds, is Red Queen of Diamonds, is Red Number of pairs: 1 Highest pair is: Five</p> <pre><code> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h> struct card { const char *face; const char *suit; const char *color; }; typedef struct card Card; typedef unsigned char pairs; void fillDeck( Card * const, const char *[], const char *[] ,const char *[]); void shuffle( Card * const ); void print( const Card * const ); pairs findpairs(card *hand); /* finds any pairs in a hand */ int main() { int hand,cd,winner; card hands[5][5],handssorted[5][5]; pairs numpairs[5],highest; Card deck[52]; const char *face[] = { "Ace", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five","Six", "Seven", "Eight", "Nine", "Ten","Jack", "Queen", "King"}; const char *suit[] = { "Hearts", "Diamonds", "Clubs", "Spades"}; const char *color[]= {"Black","Red"}; srand( time( NULL ) ); fillDeck( deck, face, suit, color ); print( deck ); printf("\n ---------------------------------------------------------- \n"); shuffle( deck ); print( deck ); for(cd=0;cd<5;cd++) { } for(hand=0;hand<5;hand++) { /* sort the hands here */ numpairs[hand]=findpairs(handssorted[hand]); printf("Hand %i:\n",hand+1); /* print the hands here */ /* print the number and value of any pairs here */ } /* determine the winner and print it */ system("pause"); return 0; } //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- void fillDeck( Card * const wDeck, const char * wFace[], const char * wSuit[], const char * wColor[]) { int i; for ( i = 0; i <= 51; i++ ) { wDeck[i].face = wFace[ i % 13 ]; wDeck[i].suit = wSuit[ i / 13 ]; wDeck[i].color = wColor[i%2]; // if () // wDeck[i].suit = wSuit[ i / 13 ]; } } //------------------------------------------------------------------ void shuffle( Card * const wDeck ) { int i, j; Card temp; for ( i = 0; i <= 51; i++ ) { j = rand() % 52; temp = wDeck[ i ]; wDeck[ i ] = wDeck[ j ]; wDeck[ j ] = temp; } } //--------------------------------- void print( const Card * const wDeck ) { int i; for ( i = 0; i <= 51; i++ ){ printf( "\t%s\t of \t%-8s is \t%s \n \t", wDeck[i].face, wDeck[i].suit,wDeck[i].color, ( i + 1 ) % 2 ?
