    Help for poker game in C

    Hello,
    Currently I am supposed to develop a poker project in C. I am struggling in this part and my teacher won't realy help...
    Each card can be represented by 2 characters: the first character represents its value and the second character represents its suit. Possible values: A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, T, J, Q, K. Possible suits: C, E, O, P. There are 10 different combinations (1 - high card, 2 - pair, 3 - two pair, 4 - three of a kind, 5 - straight, 6 - flush, 7 - full house, 8 - four of a kind, 9 - straight flush, 10 - royal flush). The objective is to identify the poker hand (combination) in the 5 cards inserted by the user in the terminal and to write the integer value in stdout accordingly to the identified hand.
    If someone could develop this code, so that I might understand it then itwould greatly help me.
    Tank you for your time.

    No one will write your code for you. You can have your code reviewed and language related concepts cleared here. You must write your own code and make an attempt of your own for someone to help you. Consider coming up with a basic framework of input/output of your program and most likely, someone may help you complete it. If you've been given homework, it's for a reason and considering the question, your teacher believes to have taught you enough of C to implement it, so, good luck!

    Perhaps you posted this in the wrong sub-forum? Perhaps you meant to post in the "Projects and Job Recruitment" forum?

    This is your project, you need to do the work.

    He actually didnīt teach me the concepts because my university got cancelled 1 month ago because of the pandemic, and this work is supposed to be delivered in 2 weeks. So I actually have not learned almost nothing thats necessary for this work, the teacher himself said it, but he can't do anything. Anyways tank you for the reply I will try to do it !

    I think you need to rally your other students and collectively appeal for some kind of deadline extension until such time that classes have resumed so that you and your classmates can actually be taught according to the syllabus outlined by the lecturer before the start of the semester.

    As it stands, you're on your own as if there was no university and you were doing "work" as a contractor, in which case getting other people to do your work for you by paying them is perfectly fine, and yet it remains true that you are submitting university coursework under your own name, so just getting other people to do your work for you -- even if you pay them fairly -- is still academic dishonesty that I daresay could warrant expulsion from the university.

    I get maybe two dozen requests for help with some sort of programming or design problem every day. Most have more sense than to send me hundreds of lines of code. If they do, I ask them to find the smallest example that exhibits the problem and send me that. Mostly, they then find the error themselves. "Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Look at all three posts by this weirdo, this post and the following two, all posted at about the same time.
    They are all meaningless garbage and remind me of the kind of useless add-on comments that spammers sometimes use to get past the first few posts.
