Hearts simulation

This is the simulation for Hearts that I created for my AP Statistics class. The objective of this project was to test the various factors that influence winning a game of Hearts. Users are able to control the factors and calculate how the winning rate changes. The base for the simulation was implemented by Daniel Corin, found in https://github.com/danielcorin/Hearts. I added the different tests for the various factors in https://github.com/hedgehog412/heartsSimulation.

The True Culprit: Review of Black Mirror S4E2 Arkangel

I would binge watch..... 2 more episodes  (Although the Arkangel wasn't enough to lure me into the series, considering the fact that my only experience with Black Mirror is with the 2 of the lowest ranking episodes, I would give it a second chance.) -------------------------------------------Short Review for the Lazy------------------------------------------- Although "Arkangel" received mixed reviews and low ratings (from the general audience and me, the writer of this review), it succeeded in posing the question "Who is to blame?" This question is complex, bringing out a variety of answers in our class discussion. It is hard to judge whether a character is to blame or not. Although Marie's actions were extreme, they were understandable. Although Sara acted like a delinquent, her actions were not that strange for a teenager of her age. In the end, following traditional Black Mirror fashion, most people will agree that the new technology is...

Ongoing tale: My Heart is Broken

Mavis Gallant's My Heart is Broken follows the conversation between Jeannie and Mrs. Thompson regarding Jeannie's rape. Sadly, but not surprisingly, the aftermath of rape has not changed much since 1964. Mrs. Thompson implies that Jeannie is also responsible for the rape occurring. With words like "If you'd listened to me, none of this would have happened" or "I told you it would make trouble, all that being cute and dancing around" Mrs. Thompson blames Jeannie for what happened. The rapist is nonexistent in this conversation, Mrs. Thompson refusing to find out who he is. Jeannie is considered the main reason of the rape as Mrs. Thompson believes it could have been prevented if Jeannie acted differently. Mr. Sherman goes even further, arguing "no man by his own self can rape a girl, so there was either two men or else she's invented the whole story". This leads to a social atmosphere at the camp prevents Jeannie and her husband Vern fro...

True Love: After reading The Lady with the Dog and The Trick: Notes toward a Theory of Plot

I have never had the fortune of being in love. Of course, I had my fair share of childish crushes but I have never actually felt love. But after reading  The Lady with the Dog  by Anton Chekhov and   The Trick: Notes toward a Theory of Plot  by Marilyn Abilskov, I got a glimpse at what being crazy in love is. In both stories, the characters find meaning in their otherwise meaningless lives with their love. Both Dmitri and Anna were never in love before meeting each other. Dmitri is married to a wife that he is secretly afraid of and doesn’t care if he is unfaithful to her. “He had never once loved …. And only now when his head was grey he had fallen properly, really in love –for the first time in his life.” To Dmitri, meeting new women was a search for excitement and life. And his search ended when he found Anna. Anna became the center of his universe, unable to live his life without thinking about her, her existence haunting his mind. “In the evenings she peep...
