Poker hand evaluator in Swift

A small Swift package for evaluating 5-card poker hands.

Usage

Creating cards:

let card = Card(.ace, .spades)

Creating hands:

let hand = Hand([
    Card(.king, .hearts),
    Card(.queen, .clubs),
    Card(.jack, .spades),
    Card(.ten, .diamonds),
    Card(.ace, .hearts),
])

Printing suits, ranks, cards, or hands:

print(Suit.hearts) // ♠
print(Rank.ace) // A
print(Card(.ace, .hearts)) // A♠
print(Hand([
    Card(.deuce, .hearts),
    Card(.four, .clubs),
    Card(.jack, .diamonds),
    Card(.king, .spades),
    Card(.ace, .hearts),
])) // 2❤ 4♣ J♦ K♠ A❤

Evaluating hands:

hand.value

This gives the value of the hand as an Int between 1 and 7462. The lower the value, the more valuable the hand. The value of illegal hands is 0.

History

This project is based on an earlier version written in Java.
