=====STANDARD 52-CARD DECK=====

====VALUES====

A standard deck of playing cards has 52 cards from each of the four suits.
There are 13 cards in each suit: Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, and King, from lowest to highest value, and then it loops around.
====SUITES====

The four suits in a standard deck include hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs. Spades and clubs are black colored cards, and hearts and diamonds are red. These make up the sub-classes of card types, beyond just their face value.

===Structure For Doubly Linked List===
A doubly linked list offers us the option to move both backward and forwards in a list. This is done by adding a pointer to the previous node. Here is an example of a structure of a doubly linked list:

<code C>
struct cardnode
{
    bool Active;
    int cardID;         // Card id to call for displaying
    cardnode* next;    // Pointer to the next card node
    cardnode* prev;    // Pointer to the previous card node
};
</code>

We originally had just a pointer next for a single linked list but now we have added a pointer for prev.

===Creating a Doubly-linked List===
To create our doubly-linked list, we'll undergo a similar process to how we handled our singly-linked list in ttb1. First, we create the first node in our list, then we append onto it.

Creating the first node of the doubly-linked list is almost identical to our previous projects. The only change is that we need to set ''current->prev'' (our pointer to the currently selected node on the list) to ''NULL''. Since this is the first node in our list, ''current->prev'' will always be equal to ''NULL''.

Adding additional nodes is where it gets more complicated. Before allocating the memory for the next node and moving the current pointer, we'll need to create a temporary pointer (called ''temp'' in these examples). This will be used to link up ''current->prev'' once we move past the first node. With ''temp'' created, the general order you'll want to follow is:
  - Set temp equal to the current pointer
  - Allocate the structure memory into ''current->next''.
  - Move the current pointer to the next node.
  - Use ''temp'' to link back up to ''current->prev''.
  - Set ''current->next'' to ''NULL''.
  - Free the memory of ''temp''.
To create additional nodes, just repeat these steps.


===Setting Up Buttons===
To use a keyboard and take input you first need to call the following inside your main function but outside your game loop:
<code C>
select_gamepad(0);
</code>

If you want to set up two buttons, one for moving forward in a deck and one for moving backwards then use the following line:
<code C>
// Buttons to go back and forth between deck
bool nextcard = (gamepad_button_a() == 1);
bool prevcard = (gamepad_button_b() == 1);
</code>

To use button "a" press X and to use button "b" press Z.

By adding these two lines you now have set up your buttons but now need to add some if statements for when they are pressed.

Here is an example of an if statement using button "nextcard":

<code C>
if (nextcard)
{
    // Next card in the deck is displayed
}
</code>
If button "a" is clicked then the next card in the deck is displayed.

Alternatively, you can use the arrow keys to do the same thing, reading XDirection or YDirection respectively in place of "a" or "b".

==Randomizing Your Deck==

To randomize your deck you can use arrays.

<code C>
int array[a]

for (int i = 0; i < a; i++) {
     array[i] = i;
     }
     
for (int i = 0; i < a; i++) {
     int temp = array[i];
     int randomIndex = rand() % 13;
     array[i] = array[randomIndex];
     array[randomIndex] = temp;
}
