Blackjack game help

[zOriginaL]

What is it you are trying to achieve?
I am trying to make a blackjack game. So far, I have the background image of the table, a score bar, images of all 52 cards.


What is the problem you are having?
How do I use arrays and randint to create the random number and based on the number display the cards to the screen? I also need help with the "hit", "stay", "split" options and betting amount.

With arrays you can do marvelous things, such as load a dozen things into a single variable. As well manipulate them to work with loops. However, in this case you should not be using regular arrays because this can cause severe lag issues. What I recommend is that you work with Flexible Arrays instead. What I mean by flexible is that you can easily push new values into the array.

var CARD : flexible array 1..0 of int

When you push new values you increase the 0 each time representing the cards used. Still stuck? Well whenever you push a new value remember, the value is stored. You can use this to your advantage as to checking for duplicates or cards that are used more then once. Anyways I left a few links below good luck.
