This is a simple text-based Blackjack game implemented in Python. It's designed to be a basic demonstration of how the game works and has been developed as part of my learning journey in Python programming.
- The game is played with a standard deck of 52 cards. The cards are shuffled before each game.
- The player and dealer are dealt two cards each at the start of the game.
- The player can choose to 'hit' (receive another card) or 'stay' (end their turn).
- The dealer must 'hit' until they have 17 or more.
- The game handles 'busts' (when the total of a hand exceeds 21), 'blackjacks' (an Ace and a 10-value card as the first two cards), and normal game endings according to standard Blackjack rules.
- Run the
blackjack.py
Python file. - You'll see your two cards and one of the dealer's cards.
- You'll be asked whether you want to 'hit' or 'stay'. If you want to 'hit', enter 'h'. If you want to 'stay', enter 's'.
- The game continues until you 'bust', 'stay', or get a 'blackjack'.
- After you 'stay', it's the dealer's turn. The dealer will 'hit' until they have 17 or more.
- The game ends and the winner is announced.
- Python 3.x
- Implement betting system.
- Add the ability to split hands.
- Add more complex dealer rules.
- Improve user interface.
I'm a passionate Python learner, constantly trying to improve my skills and understanding of this powerful language. I love working on projects that challenge me and allow me to learn new things.
