I'd never get hired because I hate card games hence I'd never have come up with the suit classes or the shuffle and deal methods... :o)


>>>I'm a big believer that if your a good coder in a different language you'll be a good coder in any language - because it's about the logic and the rest is just syntax. So I was looking for an OOP question that didn't rely on FoxPro knowledge and came up with. Can you describe a deck of cards as objects? Telling me what classes you would create and what properties and methods you would put in each class. To this date only 1 person has ever given me a good response on this question. Is it too tuff of a question or is it a bad question?

Then create a subclass of that baseclass for each suit. That suit class could contain it's picture, color of that suit. Then create a container object for the deck that would hold references to the suit class that would have methods like shuffle, deal.
