Cards

Cards is a solution to the problem posed by Reg Braithwaite In order to both stretch my architecture skills and add to my portfolio.

Implementation

I have actually gone a bit above-and-beyond the call of duty and implemented many methods. However, it should not be judged on its implementation - the point of the exercise was to demonstrate skills in architecture, not skills in implementation. Therefore, I concentrated much harder on creating a structure within my code than I did on implementation details. For example, my implementation of Deck.shuffle() is rather crude, and could be greatly improved upon given enough time to do so.

Notes

I should point out that this code is untested - again, this is because it's not the implementation that matters, it's the architecture. It does compile cleanly, but that's only because Eclipse bugs me about errors until I fix them. I had begun writing it in Geany for this reason, but got a bit lost without my ever-helpful JavaDoc tooltips. Damn you Eclipse for making me rely upon IDE magic for my understanding of Java!
