Java Introduction 8014 | Version 7 ASSIGNMENT ONE – GAME ZONE LO-COMP 8014 ASSIGNMENT BACKGROUND This assignment builds upon the lecture notes and chapters 1 to 3. ASSIGNMENT PREPARATION In order to prepare for this assignment question you should attempt:  all debugging exercise in chapters 1 to 3  complete 5 exercises from chapters 1 to 3 (odd questions) ASSIGNMENT QUESTION – Game Zone Playing cards are used in many computer games, including versions of such classics as Solitaire, Hearts, and Poker. Design a card class that contains a character data field to hold a suit (“s‟ for spades, “h‟ for hearts, “d‟ for diamonds, or “c‟ for clubs) and an integer data field for a value from 1 to 13. Include get and set methods for each field. Save the class as Card.java Write an application that randomly selects two playing cards and displays their values. Simply assign a suit to each of the cards, but generate a random number for each card‟s value. For now, just observe how the card values change as you execute the program multiple times. Save the application as PickTwoCards.java Hint: Use the Math.random() function to generate a random number. The function call uses only a class and method name – no object – so you know the random() method must be a static method. You can learn more about how to generate random numbers in Appendix D. For bonus marks: You can modify the Card class to hold words for the suits, such as “spades” or “hearts” and words for some of the values – for example, “ace” or “king”.
