Provide a method for the player to swap their entire hand
An option for "Swap out your entire hand." is added to the player's options.
private static string GetChoice() {
string Choice;
Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine("Either:");
Console.WriteLine(" enter the word you would like to play OR");
Console.WriteLine(" press 1 to display the letter values OR");
Console.WriteLine(" press 4 to view the tile queue OR");
Console.WriteLine(" press 7 to view your tiles again OR");
Console.WriteLine(" press 0 to fill hand and stop the game.");
Console.WriteLine(" press 2 to swap out your entire hand."); // <- New command here
Console.Write("> ");
Choice = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine();
Choice = Choice.ToUpper();
return Choice;
}
The following code is added to the choices in the method called HaveTurn:
else if (Choice == "2") {
//method to swap entire hand
int handsize = PlayerTiles.Length;
PlayerTiles = "";
PlayerTiles = GetStartingHand(TileQueue, handsize);
DisplayTilesInHand(PlayerTiles);
}
The first line records the size of the player's hand. The second empties their hand, and the third calls GetStartingHand() to give them a new hand the same size as their old one. Then the player is shown their new hand.
