Description:

A simple; recently rewritten python script with a tkinter GUI that randomises a text based deck of cards. It also keeps its own count and can show the count and pause the deal so you can compare your count with the count of the computer. The speed is on a slider and will change easily while the count is running.
If you want a more recent version, checkout the sourceforge project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/cardcount/), the CVS respository imparticular.
The project is still in Alpha, and images instead of text are the next thing to be implimented, as soon as i have some time to do it.

Code:

#!/usr/bin/python import Tkinter import tkMessageBox from random import shuffle class Counter: """The class container for CardCountingTrainer.""" def __init__(self, master): self.deck = ['CA', 'SA', 'HA', 'DA', 'C2', 'S2', 'H2', 'D2', 'C3', 'S3', 'H3', 'D3', 'C4', 'S4', 'H4', 'D4', 'C5', 'S5', 'H5', 'D5', 'C6', 'S6', 'H6', 'D6', 'C7', 'S7', 'H7', 'D7', 'C8', 'S8', 'H8', 'D8', 'C9', 'S9', 'H9', 'D9', 'C10', 'S10', 'H10', 'D10', 'CJ', 'SJ', 'HJ', 'DJ', 'CQ', 'SQ', 'HQ', 'DQ', 'CK', 'SK', 'HK', 'DK'] self.count = 0 self.current_card = 0 shuffle(self.deck) frame = Tkinter.Frame(master) frame.pack(fill=Tkinter.X, expand=1) self.label = Tkinter.Label(frame, text='Press Start to start deal') self.label.pack() self.slider = Tkinter.Scale(frame, from_=500, to=5000, orient=Tkinter.HORIZONTAL, command=self.new_timerspeed) self.slider.set(2500) self.slider.pack(fill=Tkinter.X, expand=1) self.start = Tkinter.Button(frame, text='Start the deal', command=self.deal_newcard) self.start.pack() self.stop = Tkinter.Button(frame, text="Stop & Show count", command=self.stop_showcount) self.stop.pack() self.exit = Tkinter.Button(frame, text="exit", command=top.quit) self.exit.pack() def deal_newcard(self): self.label.config(text=self.deck[self.current_card]) self.update_count(self.deck[self.current_card]) self.current_card += 1 if self.current_card == len(self.deck): shuffle(self.deck) self.current_card = 0 self.label.after(self.timerspeed, self.deal_newcard) def update_count(self, card): card = card[1:] self.conditions_up = ("A", "K", "Q", "J", "10") self.conditions_same=("7", "8", "9") self.conditions_down=("6", "5", "4", "3", "2") for value in self.conditions_up: if card == value: self.count -= 1 break for value in self.conditions_same: if card == value: break for value in self.conditions_down: if card == value: self.count +=1 break return 1 def stop_showcount(self): stopped = True tkMessageBox.showinfo("The Current Count", self.count) def new_timerspeed(self, x): self.timerspeed = x top = Tkinter.Tk() top.geometry('250x150') app = Counter(top) top.mainloop()
