I had said:

• Keep the same parameter lists and return types as in Java.
• I will unit test your methods.

These turn out to be incompatible. For various reasons, the parameter lists and return types should not be the same as in Java, but I need to know what they are in order to write my unit tests. For that reason, I will require the following parameter lists and return types for each method. Please let me know ASAP if you find any further problems.

Note: The specifications below explicitly include the return types. This is to make it clear what should be returned. You can let Scala infer the return types.

Revised due date: 6am November 30.

• object Bridge
• def main(args: Array[String])
• def run()
  • This method exists only as a workaround for some problems in Java, and is only called from main. You may omit this method and move its functionality into main.
• def makePlayers(): Seq[Player]
• def makeCards(): Seq[Card]
• def playTrick(???): ???
  • This method is required, and should do approximately the same thing as it does in Java.
  • The Java method is defined in a way that makes it very difficult to test. Therefore, I won't write any unit tests for your playTrick method. Therefore, you can do anything you like with the parameters and return type.
    
    
• class Card(val value: Int, val suit: String)
  • def value: Int
    • If you use the above class definition, this method is defined for you.
  • def suit: Int String
    • If you use the above class definition, this method is defined for you.
  • def isBiggerThan(thatCard: Card): Boolean
  • override def toString: String
    
    
• class Player(name: String)
  • override def toString: String
  • def shuffle(cards: Seq[Card]) : Seq[Card]
  • def deal(cards: Seq[Card], players: Seq[Player]): Unit
  • def showHand
    • Omit this method. You don't need it.
  • def hand: Seq[Card]
    • New method, required for testing. Returns the cards held by this player.
  • def addCardToHand(card: Card): Unit
  • def takeCardFromHand(card: Card): Unit
    • This method removes the specified card from this Player's hand.
    • Notice that the parameters and return type have been changed.
  • def playAnyCard(): Card
  • def tryToFollowSuit(suit: String): Card
