JavaScript/CoffeeScript

Simple Backbone.js List

In quotes.html you will need to build a simple Backbone.js view to list the given quotes. Please do not use any libraries or plugins to do this other than jQuery, Backbone.js, and underscore.js.

Please provide the following functionality:

  • Fetch quotes from the source quotes.json and display the available information in a list-like structure (table/list)
  • Provide client-side pagination (up to 15 quotes per page)
  • Optionally: Provide a way to filter between game and movie quotes
  • Optionally: Provide a client-side search that filters by the quote text

Please use your discretion in implementing the optional, nice-to-have features (if interested).

Ruby

Array extension

Please write a module that gives where behavior to an array of hashes. (See test.rb and make it pass, or feel free to convert the tests to your favorite test framework.)

Simplified Blackjack

blackjack.rb contains initial work on a Blackjack simulation.

You will need to implement the following functionality:

  • As a Player I can get a hand with two cards in it
  • As a Dealer I can get a hand with two cards in it
  • As a Player I can see what card the dealer is showing
  • As a Player I can bust (lose immediately) when I am getting cards
  • As a Player I can blackjack (win immediately) when I am dealt cards (this is a simplification)
  • As a Dealer I can draw cards after the player until I win or lose

Please use your discretion in fixing/adding tests. You are free to use/convert to any testing framework you want.

Bonus:

  • Simulate a random round of the game (you don't have to write educated player decision logic - it could be just guesses)

Rules:

  • Bust - Occurs when all possible hand values are greater than 21 points
  • Blackjack - Occurs when a player or dealer is dealt an ace and a 10-point card
  • Dealer - Stays on 17 or above

For more information on blackjack, please refer to the wiki.
