Still new to c++ so I thought I understood the program but was told that I cant use one line functions so now Im confused on what to do.
Blackjack (21 points). This question is adpoted from John Zelle's Book: Python Programming: an intro to comp sci.
Question:
Blackjack (twenty-one) is a casino game played with cards. The goal of the game to draw cards that total as close to 21 points as possible without going over. All face cards count as 10 points, aces count as 1 or 11, and all other cards count their numeric value.
The game is played against a dealer. The player tries to get closer to 21 (without going over) than the dealer. If the dealer busts (goes over 21) the player automatically wins (provided the player had not already busted). The dealer must always take cards according to a fixed set of rules. The dealer takes cards until he or she achieves a total of at least 17. If the dealer's hand contains an ace, it will be counted as 11 when that results in a total between 17 and 21 inclusive; otherwise, the ace is counted as 1.
Write a program that simulates multiple games of blackjack and estimates the probability that the dealer will bust. Hints: treat the deck of cards as infinite. You do not need to keep track of the cards in the hand, just the total so far (treating an ace as 1) and a bool variable hasAce (NOT a function) that tells whether or not the hand contains an ace. A hand containing an ace should have 10 points added to the total exactly when doing so would produce a stopping total(something between 17 and 21 inclusive).
Requirement:
- write a function that picks/generates the next card.
- write a function to tell if the dealer is busted or not.
- write a function to simulate one game
- write a function to simulate the game for n times, where n is specified by user.
In c++ please. The first two function were easy but was told they cant be online function. Comments would be helpful.
