What is it?
| I am writing a standalone program to run alongside the PokerRoomTexas Hold'em game. | ||
| It will find your hand without user interaction | ||
| Calculate the odds of getting any given hand (Flush, Straight, 3 of a kind etc...) | ||
| Emulate a user input number of hands with the cards you have to see how many come up winning |
Where I'm at:
| 7/10/04 | I am currently writing the statistics, and have all ready written the code necessary for finding your hand. | |
| I need to enable different sizes of the GUI for different screen resolutions. I run my pc at 1280*1024, and have built it accordingly to the real estate I can spare in the corner. However, when switching to 800*600 the GUI takes up way too much of the screen. |
| 7/12/04 | I just resized the GUI to the size below - maybe someone running 800*600 or less (is that still possible?) can tell me how much space it consumes on their monitors - perhaps I am being misled by the size it comes up on my 21 in. when switching to 800*600. |
| I need to get some banner adds that might make this project worth my while. I don't intend to have any spyware or adware silent installers built in. I have actually written a different form that will pop up on top of this one between hands that will have the ads on it. That way the size of the GUI wont go up. | ||
| I need to snazz up this site. How do you like the graphic up top? No site can ever have enough flash. I need to write a preloader its 100k load time leaves an ugly white box when first loading the site. Or, redo the graphic... I put too much time into it allready. | ||
| I haven't done anything with the emulation yet. | ||
| I just finished making it compatible with the downloadable version. I had planned on doing that after the first release, but that damn java applet took so damn long to load every time I wanted to run tests. |
| 7/15/04 | I've docked some things, so now with creative resizing one can get the GUI below. I havent decided if I'll let this be the final way to deal with screen resolution yet though. |
| 7/16/04 | Did you know that in c# the following code: handSorted=hand; will sort both hand and handSorted? That was the underlying factor I hadn't thought of until revamping a whole bunch of my code. Now I have to go back and change it to what it was. (too bad my last back up takes me back before I wrote any of it.) I realize now you have initialize them separately in a for loop - but I'm ready to write an angry letter to M$. | |
| 7/20/04 | I've been knockin out some major statistics; but came across a snag in the fact that in a straight the ace can be high or low. I've got some revisions to do. |
Are you interested in being a Beta Tester? Stay tuned, I'll need you soon.
