written in this sample for MS-Windows and we can update them for other operating systems.
65.57 The Cards Game
In the next example we will see a simple Cards game developed using RingQt
Each player get 5 cards, the cards are unknown to any one. each time one player click on one card to see it. if the card
is identical to another card the play get point for each card. if the card value is “5” the player get points for all visible
cards.
