In this project, you are going to implement functions for Mini Card Game. It is a simple playing card game.

2 Mini Card Game

In Mini Card Game, there is only one player. The game is played with a card-list and a goal point. The player has a list of held-cards which is initially empty. The game is played with a list of moves which is provided at the beginning. The player can make 2 types of moves:

draw : With this move, the player takes the first card in the card-list and adds it to the held-cards. If the player draws a card c (it must be the first card in the card-list), the length of the card-list is reduced by one and the length of the held-cards is incremented by one.

discard: With this move, the player removes any one card from the held-cards. If the player discards a card c, the game continues with the held-cards except c. The card-list is unchanged. The discard card selection strategy is not specified. You can implement your own strategy.

The objective of Mini Card Game is to end the game with a low score.

Scoring details : Let playerpoint be the sum of the values of held-cards, goal be the goal point which is an integer value. First of all, prescore for the player is calculated. The finalscore is calculated with prescore according to held-cards. The prescore is 5 times ( playerpoint goal ), if the playerpoint is greater than goal. Otherwise, the prescore is ( goal playerpoint ). The finalscore is the prescore, if there are different colored cards in held-cards list. If all the held-cards are same color, the finalscore is the half of the prescore (rounded down with integer division).

The game has 4 endings:

Game-Over-1: If the list of moves is empty, the game ends.

Game-Over-2: If the current move is draw and the card-list is empty, the game ends.

Game-Over-3: If the current move is discard and the held-cards is empty, the game ends.

Game-Over-4: At any time if the sum of the values in the held-cards is greater than the goal after the last move, the game ends.

3 An Example Play

Game elements are:

1. card-list: It is the deck of cards on the table.
2. move-list: It is the list of moves for the player. It is given at the beginning of the game.
3. goal: It is the minimum score that the player wants to approach.
4. held-cards: It is the list of cards that the player is holding. It is an empty list at the beginning of the game.

Lets play an example game to warm up. Our inputs are:

1. card-list: ((H . 3) (H . 2) (H . A) (D . A) (D . Q) (D . J))
2. move-list: (draw draw draw discard)
3. goal: 20
4. held-cards: ()

(H . 3) is three of Hearts and (D . J) is Jack of Diamonds.

Move 1: draw Take the first card from card-list and append to held-cards. After this move:

• card-list: ((H . 2) (H . A) (D . A) (D . Q) (D . J))
• move-list: (draw draw discard)
• goal: 20
• held-cards: ((H . 3))

Move 2: check The sum of held-cards is 3 and is less than the goal (20). So continue.

Move 3: draw Take the first card from card-list and append to held-cards. After this move:

• card-list: ((H . A) (D . A) (D . Q) (D . J))
• move-list: (draw discard)
• goal: 20
• held-cards: ((H . 3) (H . 2))

Move 4: check The sum of held-cards is 5 and is less than the goal (20). So continue.

Move 5: draw Take the first card from card-list and append to held-cards. After this move:

• card-list: ((D . A) (D . Q) (D . J))
• move-list: (discard)
• goal: 20
• held-cards: ((H . 3) (H . 2) (H . A))

Move 6: check The sum of held-cards is 16 and is less than the goal (20). So continue.

Move 7: discard Choose one card from held-cards and put it away. For this example lets choose the first card to remove. After this move:

• card-list: ((D . A) (D . Q) (D . J))
• move-list: ()
• goal: 20
• held-cards: ((H . 2) (H . A))

Move 8: check The sum of held-cards is 13 and is less than the goal (20). So continue. Move 9: check The list of moves is empty. So game ends.

Lets calculate our score.

The playerpoint is the sum of held-cards, that is 13 at the end of the game.

The playerpoint is less than the goal, so the prescore is (goal playerpoint), that is 7.

We have all Hearts in held-cards, therefore all the cards are same color.

The finalscore is half of the prescore because all cards are same color, that is 3 as rounded down.

At the end, our finalscore is 3. Congratulations!

4 The Functions

You should implement the following functions for Mini Card Game:

5 BONUS ()

We are going to test your play functions in a competition. You will be able to receive bonus points according to your rank in the competition. Remember lowest score wins!

6 Documentation and Clarity

Documenting the code is essential for developing in the long term and as youre not proficient in functional programming very much, you tend to solve the problems in rather obscure and/or unnatural ways. Thus, you should document every predicate in your project and you will be graded for documentation of your code in case your code becomes hard to understand.

You should add documentation to each function you defined (both the ones required by the project description ad the ones youve created as helpers) in the form below (which is sort of the de facto documentation format for Racket):

; (hypot x y) -> number?; x : number?; y : number?;; Calculates hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by x and y. ;; Examples:; > (hypot 3 4); => 5; > (hypot 5 12); => 13(define (hypot x y)(sqrt (+ (* x x) (* y y))))

Here first line is functions signature, second and third lines are parameter types, fifth line is function description and we have a few examples on lines 8-11.

Besides documentation, it is also important to write code that is readable, so avoid small, clever, hard-tocomprehend hacks (unless they fit the very nature of functional programming, in which case you should explain the hack in documentation) and unnecessary complexity in your code. You are also graded for code clarity. When you cannot find a clearer way to handle something, explain how your code works in documentation, as it is important for us to grade your project and to be sure that you understood the concepts behind functional programming.
