Black Jack
The
Rules
Blackjack
is played with an ordinary deck of 52 cards. In this
game,
human players are only playing against the computer. A round of Blackjack is played according to these rules:
1) The dealer (the computer) gives the player two cards.
2) Each player's goal is to get more points than the dealer,
but not to exceed 21
points. A player's points are determined by summing the
contributions of
their cards:
á Face cards are worth 10 points.
á An ace is worth either 1 point or 11 points.
á All other cards are worth their face value.
3) After dealing out the starting cards, the player gets to
accumulate a hand as close as they can to 21 without going over. A player can
draw additional cards one by one from the deck until they no longer want any
more. If at any point the player's hand exceeds 21, they are "busted"
and lose.
4) After the player has had their turn and drawn as many
cards as they want, the dealer(the computer) draws itÕs cards. The dealer may not draw any more
cards over the total of 17.
5) All ties go to the dealer.
6) You must use the shuffle( ) function
and the getCard( ) function in your program.
7) The program must keep counts of
wins and losses of the player.
8)

returned without a grade, and will remain a zero until comments are added and
it is re-submitted.
