simple-blackjack

We've created a new section as part of our Projects area for all of our sample applications and code. Before, we'd upload a zip into a public folder and forget about it. Now we can properly manage releases and have additional information for samples.

Today we added:

  • BlackJack: A simple VB.NET implementation for BlackJack. We actually have a newer iteration of this sample that implements Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) but we are holding off on posting that until it's ready to be distributed (soon).
  • Strongly-typed Dataset: A sample program using a gradebook that showcases how to use a strongly-typed dataset with Microsoft Access to simplify CRUD operations.
  • Multi-dimensional Arrays: A sample program using an airline reservation system to show how to use multi-dimensional arrays and create a seating chart.

The above samples were actually created for a class and I've posted the last two before on my personal blog. The BlackJack game was ready to package so I decided to post it as a sample since it's so stripped down.

Stay tuned for more samples as we get them ready for distribution.
