Question

I need a main to test my bridge game. This program evaluates the strength of hand.

I can't wrap my head around what I need to write for a main. If I do not have a main, it gives me a link error.

*****************************
The main is all I need. I don't know what to put in the main in order to test it.

Thank You

Explanation / Answer

please rate - thanks

don't know bridge, but this is what you need

int main ()
{BridgeHand b;
b.readCards();
b.print();
system("pause");
return 0;
}
