I don't get it!

Here is a program question which i don't understand! Please explain this question to me!

1. Write and test a procedure subprogram called card that randomly generatessuit and value of a card (for example, the jack of Hearts) and returns them through parameters.

If you were any dumber, I would have deleted this topic instead of locking it, but I figured you would make another topic asking where this one went. Locked!

Btw, -20 bits, for all the reasons down there.

It's asking you to wriite a procedure that takes two parameters as variables (one for value, one for suit) and randomly give them values (ie, 1-13 for one, HDSC for the other).
To make a procedure take it's parameters as variables (also known as by reference), make it like this:

code:

proc whatever (var x, y : int)

This way, you can change the values of x and y, and when the procedure is done, the variabel you passed to it will be changed.

i donno about returning though parameters part... Confused

just make it a function Wink

just return a value that represents a card. You can use two random functions to pick a value of the card and then the suit
