blackjack-simulator v1.0.2

blackjack-simulator

This application simulates a player going head-to-head against the dealer in rounds of blackjack. The player will play according to Basic Strategy rules, as determined by the blackjack-strategy project. You can either change the options that are used for the game play or override the suggested Basic Strategy play if you want to see the impact of different Basic Strategy rules of play.

Within simulator.js, you can set handsPerTrial to set the number of hands which will be played each trial, and numTrials to determine the number of trials to run. The default values of 1,000 and 10,000 respectively result in 10 million Blackjack hands being played, which completes in 60 seconds on my laptop (half of which is writing the results to a file). The average player (dis)advantage and standard deviation of the (dis)advantage are also written out
