Practice Basic Strategy for casino Blackjack as described in numerous books.
This program was originally written in 1985 to teach myself how to play before
a trip to Las Vegas. It was written for the Commodore 64 in the Comal language
and was published in the Sept 22, 1987 issue of "Comal Today". As an exercise,
I rewrote the program in the C language (again on the C64). Eventually a PC
entered my life and the program was rewritten for DOS. The source code is
available for a fee (see the nag screen in the program). Although not as
flashy as some Windows programs, you will find it to be fast and accurate
for learning Blackjack Basic Strategy!
