Cards are probably the most commonly used game items for board games. Incidentally, the basic organisation of cards in many card games that use the Frencch style is similar, and forms a good example to illustrate many object oriented programming principles.

This repo attempts to model the organisation of cards using the following basic and widely used conventions in card games:

In a game of cards, each player plays using a hand of cards. Cards are usually delt from a deck. The deck must initially contains all the 52 cards, and shuffled before play. For French style cards, cards are identified using their rank and suit. For the ranks, there's the Ace, then 2 to 10, Jack, Queen and King. The suits are Clubs, Diamonds, Spades and Hearts.

Using this general description, I have modelled a class structure that employs various principles of object oriented programming. See image below:

This labs are part of the Andela boot-camp set of programming assignments, which am currently participating in.

Feel free to comment on the code or ask any questions about the boot-camp.
