Blackjack

-----------------------------------

well basicly i have a fairly good blackjack game going on right now but still got a few problems... cant post the code here becuase its for my isu but i will tell you what i can... basicly i have to make it so the dealer doesnt get more cards after he has 17... this is more complicating that it looks because a simple if dealer card>17 then hit type thing screws with the program.  when you have this code added when it reaches the point with it, it resets the program

My blackjack was fully graphical and complette , but you should still be able to use 

if dealerhand is >=17 then
dealerhit := false
else 
dealerhit :=true
end if

you will need to hit systems one for hte osuer and one for the computer

it is a boolean variable..
basically it has two modes : true and false.. on or off.. 1 or 0... but here.. it's just true and false  :P

this is how i did it... work perfectly thank you so very much

if card6 + card7 + card8 >= 17 then
                        card9 := 0
                    else
                        randint (card9, 1, 10)
                        card9 := card9
                    end if

now I would say that you have a 4/14 chance of getting a 10... but seeing as you just started with turing, I dont think it matters.

if you want to get ahead in CS, I sujest learning arrays, we have two tutorials available 8)
