Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

This library offers a few VO classes to use inside Card-related applications:

- `Card`: represents a Card, for example an ace of spades.
- `Rank`: represents the rank value of a Card, for example "A" or "7" ("T" is used for 10, to keep the same length).
- `Suit`: represents the card suit, for example spades or diamonds.

Some more classes, more elaborate, are available. They are abstract, and thus require a custom implementation to extend them:

- `Hand`: represents a set of Card objects, usually the ones assigned to a player
- `HandsTrick`: represents a trick of hands (think for example Poker, when players show their hands to declare a winner)
- `CardTrick`: represents a trick of cards (think for example the 4 cards of a Bridge turn)
