This programming project implements a simple clone of the popular game Pass the Pig© and PigMania©.

The main objective with this assignemnt is to introduce separate compiling, progressive programming (small versions towards the final full-fledged program), as well as to provide an oportunity to develop a project using the tools already taught such as git and cmake.

Pig is a folk jeopardy dice game described by John Scarne in 1945, in which two players compete to reach 100 points first.

The game is organized in turns. Each turn, the same player keeps rolling the dice, while the face points are accmulated into a turn total, until one of these two conditions happen:

1. The current player decides to hold, in which case s/he scores the turn total; or,
2. The face ⚀, (the pig) is rolled, in which case the current player scores nothing.

In both cases, the turn total is set to zero and it becomes the opponent's turn.

In summary, any time during a player's turn, s/he must take one of these two actions:

• Roll the dice, which may produce:
  • Face ⚀: the player scores nothing and it becomes the opponent's turn;
  • Faces ⚁, ⚂, ⚃, ⚄, or ⚅: the face point is added to the turn total and the player's turn continues.
• Hold
  • The turn total is added to the player's overall score and it becomes the opponent's turn.

The player who scores 100 or more points at the end of a turn is the winner.

• cmake
• make
• g++

To compile the project, first you need to clone th repository with

git clone https://github.com/matheusmas132/Pig-Dice.git

or download the project manualy.

Go to project directory and use

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ../
make

Type ./PigDice to run and enjoy!
