Counting Application

Question

Hi I can't seem to solve the following: A counting device. This device should have as manual input: number of decks played (52 cards per deck) Numeric up-down boxes for A10-2. It should substract 1 for A and 10 and should add 1 for 23456. (this number i will call X) There should be one output box (TrueCount) = X / Nr. of decks left. In excel I can make this no problem. But C#.. leaves me guessing. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? *Forgot to mention a reset button :)

Sure here you go. So RunnigCount = What's the current count. (-1 for A10 ; +1 for 23456). TrueCount = (total remaining cards / 52) / RunningCount.

It looks like you already have the form. All you need to do is add your calculations on the click events of whichever buttons your going to use for calculations. If you want share that form and I'll plugin some events and code.

Thanks for your efford Felipe However I am not able to input anything in the console. The idea is to input something (for example add 3 to *card10* it should add 3 to the count; add 5 to *card3* it should decrease the count with 5). I can't explain it right I'm afraid. So I added a copy of a possible design. And again; thanks for the efford it is appreciated by a C# noob like me..

Hope this helps wrote it as a Console Application: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; namespace ConsoleApplication1 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { try { Console.Write(Please enter the amount of card decks: ); int deckCount = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine()); int regDeck = 4 * deckCount; int altDec = 16 * deckCount; int total = regDeck * 9 + altDec; Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} Cards Count CardsLeft)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} A 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 10 0 altDec)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 9 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 8 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 7 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 6 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 5 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 4 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 3 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format({0}{1}{2} 2 0 regDeck)); Console.WriteLine(string.Format(Total: {0} total)); Console.Read(); } catch (Exception ex) { Console.Write(ex.Message); } } } }

Not sure I understand your question. Can you post your excel formula?
