JS Blackjack 3

This performance task requires you to develop a program on a topic that interests you or one that solves a problem. During the completion of this performance task, you will iteratively design, implement, and test your program. You will provide written responses to prompts about your program and specific program code that are significant to the functionality of your program. It is strongly recommended that a portion of the program involve some form of collaboration with another student in your class, for example, in the planning, designing, or testing (debugging) part of the development process. Your program development must also involve a significant amount of independent work writing your program code, in particular, algorithm(s) and abstraction(s) that you select to use as part of your written response to describe how the program code segments help your program run.

You are required to:

• independently develop an algorithm that integrates two or more algorithms and that is fundamental for your program to achieve its intended purpose;
• develop an abstraction that manages the complexity of your program; create a video that displays the running of your program and demonstrates its functionality;
• write responses to all the prompts in the performance task; and submit your entire program code.

Program Requirements

Your program must demonstrate a variety of capabilities and implement several different language features that, when combined, produce a result that cannot be easily accomplished without computing tools and techniques. Your program should draw upon mathematical and logical concepts, such as use of numbers, variables, mathematical expressions with arithmetic operators, logical and Boolean operators and expressions, decision statements, iteration, and/or collections.

Your program must demonstrate:

• use of several effectively integrated mathematical and logical concepts, from the language you are using;
• implementation of an algorithm that integrates two or more algorithms and integrates mathematical and/or logical concepts; and
• development and use of abstractions to manage the complexity of your program (e.g., procedures, abstractions provided by the programming language, APIs).
