C# Casino Program Homework Help

Question

Listed below is my program. I'm supposed to take two cards of both the dealer and player and evaluate who has the higher card. The player bets a certain amount of cash against that bet, and of course, if he wins he wins what was bet, if he loses, he loses the cash. I seemed to have followed the psuedocode correctly, but I keep receiving errors. Anyone want to guide me in what I'm doing wrong? Please and thank you for responses. The errors are followed by the code.

Answer 1

I copied and pasted your code into Visual Studio.

Before you worry about the { bracket syntax error, you need to think about and fix:

• Boolean more = "yes"; (not making sense)
• Random r = new Random(); (it has already been defined)
• return card in DisplayCard() because it is a void function
• Define winner in Evaluate()
