SOFT6008 25

We discussed the specification for UCLOO.

UCLOO
Player starts with 100 CIT Pesos.

Player bets a stake on the oucome of 2 random cards.
A pair (e.g. Ace of Hearts and Ace of Spades) pays 3 times the stake. (e.g. player has 80 pesos. bets 10 pesos. wins. gets 30 pesos back. Now player has 100 pesos.)
A perfect pair (e.g. King of Spades and King of Spades) pays 12 times the stake.

There are 4 suits. You can use Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, and Clubs or Southern European suits or you can be creative.

There are 3 cards per suit (Jack, Queen, King, for exmaple).

That means there are only 12 different cards in total.

SOFT6007-EVCOM 06

We looked how an image can be sliced and put back together in a table to make a navigation bar. Students make their own, using either an image of their choice or the hand image to slice. Or use an image of your own.

We saw how to upload a webpage with images to a hosting service so that the rest of the world can see it. index.html. case sensitive!!!!

Some students who were catching up worked on imagemaps. That was unfortunate because some students got confused between slicing and imagemaps. That was my fault. I must make that clearer in future.

There will be an in-class assessment next Monday.
