Does anyone know how I can assign an iterative variable in a for loop a script value. I am trying to make a poker game in MatLab and when I try to assign suits in a for loop it doesn't work and it instead assigns them NAN. I know I could just make my suit vector a collection of 1,2,3,and 4 and then later assign those values to the suit name, but is there any way i could do it directly in the for loop? The following code is where the issue is (in the for loop, but I included the other code, so it would be simpler to understand). (I know spaids is spelled spades I need to go through and fix it)
deck=[2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 5 6 6 6 6 7 7 7 7 8 8 8 8 9 9 9 9 10 10 10 10 11 11 11 11 12 12 12 12 13 13 13 13 14 14 14 14];
players=input('How many players would you like to play with (max number of players is 5) ');
while players>5 | players<1 | round(players)~=players
players=input('ERROR INPUT AN INTEGER BETWEEN 1 and 5. How many players would you like to play with (max number of players is 5) ');
end
% initializing variables that will be used later
n=0;
folded=zeros(length(players));
order=randperm(52);
suit1=zeros(length(players));
suit2=zeros(length(players));
card1=zeros(length(players));
card2=zeros(length(players));
% creating the vector for the suits of the cards
suits=["spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds","spaids","hearts","clubs","diamonds"];
% assigning individual players cards
for i=1:players
n=n+1;
card1(i)=deck(order(i));
card2(i)=deck(order(i+players));
suit1(i)=suits(order(n));
suit2(i)=suits(order(n+players));
fprintf('Player %1.0f your cards are %1.0f %s and %1.0f %s\n',i,card1(i),suit1(i),card2(i),suit2(i))
end
