twenty-one and pontoon

Inspiration

I had a small hand held verson of the game when i was little and wanted to see how it would work in java.

What it does

It plays twenty-one and pontoon with the ability to keep score.

How we built it

Using java

Challenges we ran into

Aces are considered 11 and 1 while all other cards are considered a singular value. Handling the many ways the player can input commands into the game, with some causing game breaking errors or outputs

Accomplishments that we're proud of

It works fairly well under common usecases.

What we learned

How methodical one must be to create a working program. I also learned that their should be a set goal in mind otherwise there is an ever changing list of features to be implimented.

What's next for twenty-one and pontoon

A UI, the ability to show the cards themselves instead of numerical values.
