For the SDP, the group decided to create two games: Hangman and Over/Under card game. This decision was based on the personal interests of the team and their knowledge of these games along with insight from an interview with a fellow classmate who showed interest in games like these. The games were coded using MATLAB and took about three weeks to code. The ensuing documents will give insight on the procedures the group undertook to complete these games as well as the algorithm, andthe code for the actual code in MATLAB, and future recommendations by the team on what they could’ve done differently.
Hangman is a game where the player guesses a word using letters, knowing the amount of letters in the world. For every letter they guess wrong, a man hanging is slowly drawn, and if the player guesses enough letters wrong, the hanging man is completed and the game is over.
Over/Under is a luck based card game where the player plays against the computer, where a card is randomly selected for the computer and the player, and if the player’s card is bigger in value, they win that round, otherwise, if the computer’s card is bigger in value (1-13) the player loses that round.
