For anyone interested in BlackJack, I wrote a simulator (about 500 lines of code) that enables you to plug in the kind of strategy you will be playing and then it will play a number of hands for you (it can play millions and millions of hands) and then you can see just how much money you will win or lose using that strategy.
To make a long story short, I have discovered that it is basically impossible to beat the casino when playing Blackjack. The best you can ever do is to come very close to breaking even. Any time you make a mistake, it helps the casino.
I wrote the simulator in Pascal before it was called Delphi. The programming is pretty basic and any experienced C or Pascal programmer shouldn't have much difficulty in understanding it or modifying it to accomplish your own goals.
But if any of you would like to see my simulator or would like to try your hand at modifying it, you are most welcome. Just send me a PM.
By the way, it was never written to distribute to people who could then modify it. It was written for the author (me) to have fun and investigate the results of various diff strategies. So - be warned - you should expect a rather lengthy learning curve if you want to try and use it.
I have recently installed Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas and I have just started to play with it.
Can anyone give me some advice on finding Help documents for this game?
I would really appreciate some basic help with being able to use the mouse and keyboard to accomplish basic functions - like moving around in the game and performing the basics.
Any advice?
Oops. I posted the above before beginning my search for help docs. I figured that I would always be able to find some on my own but that some of you who have played the game before would know of the location for the best help docs.
However, I just wanted to update that post to let you know that I have found a great number of help docs and so you may conclude that I don't need any additional docs. But, if you do know of some of the best ones, I would still be grateful for that info. Thank you.
