A Game of 21
For this assignment, you will write a
Here are some suggestions for the game’s design:
- Each round of the game is performed as an iteration of a loop that repeats as long as the player agrees to roll the dice, and the player’s total does not exceed 21.
- At the beginning of each round, the program will ask the users whether they want to roll the dice to accumulate points.
- During each round, the program simulates the rolling of two six-sided dice. It rolls the dice first for the computer, then it asks the user if he or she wants to roll. (Use the Die class demonstrated in this chapter to simulate the dice).
- The loop keeps a running total of both the computer and the user's points.
- The computer’s total should remain hidden until the loop has finished.
- After the loop has finished, the computer’s total is revealed, and the player with the most points without going over 21 wins.

An 8-puzzle game consists of 8 sliding tiles, numbered by digits from 1 to 8 and arranged in a 3x3 array of nine cells. A configuration in the puzzle refers to some specific arrangement of the tiles in the array, where each digit is arranged into a different cell. One of the cell is empty (represented by a "*") and any adjacent tile can be moved into the empty cell. An example below
c | 1 | 2 | 3 b | 4 | * | 5 a | 6 | 7 | 8------------------ Y/X a b c
We use a 3-tuple (number, X, Y) to represent the position of a digit, where number is the actual digit, and (X,Y) is the coordinate value of the digit in the current configuration (e.g., in the configuration above, we have (5,c,b), meaning the digit 5 is at the position of (c,b)).Hence the configuration in the example can be represented as:[(1,a,c), (2,b,c), (3,c,c), (4,a,b), (5,c,b), (6,a,a), (7,b,a), (8,c,a)].Any move of an adjacent tile into the empty cell moves the current configuration into the one adjacent to it.…
Dice Rolling Class
In this problem, you will need to create a program that simulates rolling dice. To start this project, you will first need to define the properties and behaviors of a single die that can be reused multiple times in your future code. This will be done by creating a Dice class.
Create a Dice class that contains the following members:
Two private integer variables to store the minimum and maximum roll possible.
Two constructors that initialize the data members that store the min/max possible values of rolls.
a constructor with default min/max values.
a constructor that takes 2 input arguments corresponding to the min and max roll values
Create a roll() function that returns a random number that is uniformly distributed between the minimum and maximum possible roll values.
Create a small test program that asks the user to give a minValue and maxValue for a die, construct a single object of the Dice class with the constructor that initializes the min and max…

Embellish this program as much as you like, with betting, different odds, different combinations for win or lose, stopping play when you have no money left or reach the house limit, displaying the dice, and so forth.

Diamond, Emerald and Gold. Diamond is 100 points, Emerald 70 points and Gold is 50 points.There are thieves in the game that will prevent you from hunting for treasure. Encountering a thief they steal some of your treasure. You will randomly generate which thief will steal from which treasure and how much.At the beginning of the game, the player has no treasure.

- Description: The game is a single player scenario, in which the player’s army needs to defeat the enemy’s (AI’s) army. There are 4 possible troops for an army: Archers, Spearman, Cavaliers, Footman. Each troop has some attributes and some actions. And to avoid excessive programming and calculation, we want to treat these troops as squadrons. The player always starts with 10 squadrons of their choices: they can choose any combinations of the 4 possible troop types. Each squadron should have 100 members of that troop type. Each turn, the player is allowed to choose one of their squadrons and perform an action which is allowed by that troop type. Player and the AI take turns to make actions. The game continues until either the player or the AI has no troops left. Troop Types and Descriptions: Archers: should be able to attack from range with no casualties, meaning the attack action should not cause any damage to themselves.

- A slot machine is a gambling device that the user inserts money into and then pulls a lever (or presses a button). The slot machine then displays a set of random images. If two or more of the images match, the user wins an amount of money that the slot machine dispenses back to the user. Create a program that simulates a slot machine. When the program runs, it should do the following: • Asks the user to enter the amount of money he or she wants to enter into the slot machine. Instead of displaying images, the program will randomly select a word from the following list: Cherries, Oranges, Plums, Bells, Melons, Bars To select a word, the program can generate a random number in the range of 0 through 5. If the number is 0, the selected word is Cherries; if the number is 1, the selected word is Oranges; and so forth.

Given a list of rectangular towers as tuples (s, e, h) where s and e are the start and end x-coordinates (satisfying e>s) and h is the height of that tower, compute and return the total visible area of the towers, being careful not to double count two or more towers that are partially overlapping. All towers share the same flat ground baseline at the height. The classic solution illustrates the important sweep line technique that starts by creating a list of precisely those x-coordinate values where something relevant to the problem takes place. In this problem, the relevant x-coordinates are those where some tower either…arrow_forward
- Problem: Bugs are simple creatures that only know how to walk towards other bugs. Bugs maintain information about their (x, y) position; by which it can tell if they are standing next to other bugs. Watch the following video: bug movement. Create a java project that simulate bugs movement. You need to write a class “Bug" that models a bug moving along a straight line and it can turn to change its direction counterclockwise (i.e. 90 degree to the left; north → west → south → east → north). In each move, its position changes by one unit in the current direction. Details of the "Bug" class is described below. Your simulator should read information of an unknown number of “Bug" objects from an input file called “Bugs.txt". Each line represents a bug and the initial position and facing direction of this particular bug.
