cardsharp 0.6.0

Card Playing Simulator focused on Blackjack

CardSharp

A Python framework for simulating and analyzing card games. Currently supports Blackjack, War, High Card, Baccarat, Dragon Tiger, and Durak.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/mmichie/cardsharp.git
cd cardsharp
uv sync

Usage

Simulation

# Run 10,000 blackjack games with visualization
uv run python cardsharp/blackjack/blackjack.py --simulate --num_games 10000 --vis

# Compare strategies (Basic, Counting, Aggressive, Martingale)
uv run python cardsharp/blackjack/blackjack.py --analysis --num_games 5000

# Performance profiling
uv run python cardsharp/blackjack/blackjack.py --simulate --profile --num_games 1000

Interactive Play

# Console blackjack
uv run python cardsharp/blackjack/blackjack.py --console

# Full CLI game with options
uv run python examples/cli_blackjack.py --players 3 --bankroll 500 --rounds 5

Examples

uv run python examples/async_api_demo.py        # Async API with event-driven flow
uv run python examples/blackjack_engine_demo.py  # Engine with immutable state
uv run python examples/adapter_demo.py           # Platform adapter system
uv run python examples/modern_blackjack_ui.py    # Streamlit web UI

See examples/ for the full set of demos.

Architecture

CardSharp uses an event-driven architecture with immutable state transitions:

• Events -- Components communicate through pub/sub (cardsharp/events/)
• Immutable State -- Game state transitions via pure functions (cardsharp/state/)
• Engines -- Game logic per game type (cardsharp/engine/, cardsharp/blackjack/, etc.)
• Adapters -- Platform-specific rendering and input (cardsharp/adapters/)
• APIs -- High-level sync/async interfaces (cardsharp/api/)

Testing

uv run pytest                              # Run all tests
uv run pytest --cov=cardsharp              # With coverage
uv run pytest tests/api/test_event_cleanup.py -v  # Specific module
uv run pytest -n auto                      # Parallel
