Lookup tables???
Can you define what a 'lookup table' is meant to exclude in this contest?

The 'add brain' stuff involves a lookup table (of sorts) in that you've got an array of cards that have gone

Not quite sure what were *not* meant to do

Oh, why's the book prize a 'in 24 hours (beginners)' book???

RE: Lookup tables???
A lookup table is a predined list of options that takes in to account every possible combination of cards you could have and what to do.

I hope that explains it a bit. Anyone else care to elaborate?

RE: Lookup tables???
Thought thats what you meant - what fool's gonna have a textfile with 2,598,960 rows in it anyway - no DB...

So, to clarify, arrays etc of what's happened this run so far are ok and huge lookup tables generated from a zillion test runs ain't???

Sounds about right to me (I hope)
