Although the implementation is largely up to you, your assignment needs to follow the guidelines below:
* Your game should keep a score - give the player a credit at the beginning, where a portion will be wagered with each game. Winning a game should increase the score of the player.
* Support one player only, playing against the dealer (computer)
* Your game should reflect reality - cards should appear in a random fashion, each card can appear only once in a deck etc.
* Your game must use card images. You can create your own, or use a deck created by someone else. Free images are available at: http://www.brushes.obsidiandawn.com/sets/playing-cards.htm
== Lab #8 ==
Part 1Using Linux tools, create a mosaic portrait of yourself. Use a self-taken photo as a base and a set of tile images of your choice to complete the mosaic. Send the completed portrait for grading purposes to your teacher. The mark will not be based on artistic merit - the mosaic should be detailed enough so you are recognizable. For best results, use a high-resolution photo of your face only and have a tile library of at least 50 pictures, with varying colours and brightness. Do not forget to reference your sources if you use images not taken by yourself for tiles. Post your portrait on your blog if you like. Tile libraries are available on-line - you might want to check out http:<br />/www.mazaika.com/mazdownload.html == Assignment #2 ==Create a tutorial showing how Your assignment objective is to use free Linux tools to take images from a digital camera edit and convert/transcode DV footage in Quicktime format to OGG and save them MPEG2/4 formats.The footage is available on a CD or DVD as a slide showthe Ireland server in /home/michal/mozilla/ directory. There are 13 files in total, all recorded during the Mozilla Developer Days at Seneca earlier this semester.The following is the list of files, including their approximate size.  Day 1 - 1000 am_Rm. 1014 (8 GB) - SC<br />Day 1 - 100 pm_Rm. 1014 (8GB) - SC<br />Day 1 - 1044 am_Rm. 1014 (10GB) - TC<br />Day 1 - 1130 am_Rm. 1014 (5 GB) - TC<br />Day 1 - 144 pm_Rm. 1014 (12 GB) - PC<br />Day 1 - 155pm_Web Track (5 GB) - VJ<br />Day 1 - 300 pm_Rm. 1014 (10 GB) - VJ<br />Day 1 - 345pm_Multimedia (10 GB) - KL<br />Day 2 - 100 pm_Tel.
