Write a program that reads five cards from the user, then analyzes the cards and prints out the category of poker hand that they represent.
Poker hands are categorized according to the following labels: Straight flush, four of a kind, full house, straight, flush, three of a kind, two pairs, pair, high card.
To simplify the program we will ignore card suits, aces, and face cards. The values that the user inputs will be integer values from 2 to 9. When your program runs it should start by collecting five integer values from the user. It might look like this (user input is in bold red for clarity):
Enter five numeric cards, no face cards. Use 2 - 9.
Card 1: 8
Card 2: 7
Card 3: 8
Card 4: 2
Card 5: 3
(This is a pair, since there are two eights)
Since we are ignoring card suits there won’t be any flushes. Your program should be able to recognize the following hand categories, listed from least valuable to most valuable:
Hand Type |
Description |
Example |
High Card |
There are no matching cards, and the hand is not a straight |
2, 5, 3, 8, 7 |
Pair |
Two of the cards are identical |
2, 5, 3, 5, 7 |
Two Pair |
Two different pairs |
2, 5, 3, 5, 3 |
Three of a kind |
Three matching cards |
5, 5, 3, 5, 7 |
Straight |
Card values can be arranged in order |
3, 4, 5, 6, 7 |
Full House |
A pair, and a three of a kind |
5, 7, 5, 7, 7 |
Four of a kind |
Four matching cards |
2, 5, 5, 5, 5 |
A note on straights: a hand is a straight regardless of the order. So the values 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 represent a straight; so do the values 7, 4, 5, 6, 3.
Your program should read in five values and then print out the appropriate hand type. If a hand matches more than one description, the program should print out the most valuable hand type only.
Here are three sample runs of the program (user input in bold red):
Enter five numeric cards, no face cards. Use 2 - 9.
Card 1: 8
Card 2: 7
Card 3: 8
Card 4: 2
Card 5: 7
Two Pair!
Enter five numeric cards, no face cards. Use 2 - 9.
Card 1: 8
Card 2: 7
Card 3: 4
Card 4: 6
Card 5: 5
Straight!Enter five numeric cards, no face cards. Use 2 - 9.
Card 1: 9
Card 2: 2
Card 3: 3
Card 4: 4
Card 5: 5
High Card!
Requirements
You must write a function for each hand type. Each function must accept an int array as a parameter. You can assume that the array will have five elements. The functions should have the following signatures:
bool containsPair(int hand[])
bool containsTwoPair(int hand[])
bool containsThreeOfaKind(int hand[])
bool containsStraight(int hand[])
bool containsFullHouse(int hand[])
bool containsFourOfaKind(int hand[])
You do not need to write a containsHighCard function. All hands contain a highest card. If you determine that a particular hand is not one of the better hand types, then you know that it is a High Card hand.
