Games::Score is a Perl module to keep track of score in games .

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Score;

# these three values are the default ones, by the way
Games::Score->default_score(0);
Games::Score->default_step(1);
Games::Score->step_method(inc);

# start two players
my $player1 = Games::Score->new();
my $player2 = Games::Score->new();

# set a winning condition
Games::Score->victory_is( sub { $_[0] >= 20 } );

# and something to do if it is achieved
Games::Score->on_victory_do( sub { print "Won!" } );

# give points to the players
$player1->add(2);
$player2->step();

# look at section FUNCTIONS for more functionalities, such as
Games::Score->invalidate_if( sub { $_[0] > 20 } );

Games::Score can be use to keep track of several players points in a game, regardless of the starting amount of points, winning and/or losing conditions, etc.
It provides several useful methods so that the user doesnt have to keep testing values to see if theyre valid or if the player condition has changed.

Games::Chess Perl module represent chess positions and games.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Chess qw(:constants);
my $p = Games::Chess::Position->new;
$p->at(0,0,BLACK,ROOK);
$p->at(7,7,WHITE,ROOK);
print $p->to_text;

The Games::Chess package provides the class Games::Chess::Piece to represent chess pieces, and the class Games::Chess::Position to represent a position in a chess game. Objects can be instantiated from data in standard formats and exported to these formats.

NOTATION

See Games::Chess::PGN for full details of the notations.

SAN

Standard Algebraic Notation. The modern international notation for chess games. For example,

1. e4 e5
2. f4 exf4
3. Nf3 g5

FEN

Forsythe-Edwards Notation. A compact representation for chess positions. FEN specifies the piece placement, the active color, the castling availability, the en passant target square, the halfmove clock, and the fullmove number as six fields separated by spaces. For example, the opening position is described in FEN as follows:

rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - 0 1

PGN

Portable Game Notation. A notation for chess games, including the moves, commentary, variations, and metadata such as the players, the event, the round number, and the date of the match. For example,

[Event "F/S Return Match"]
[Site "Belgrade, Serbia JUG"]
[Date "1992.11.04"]
[Round "29"]
[White "Fischer, Robert J."]
[Black "Spassky, Boris V."]
[Result "1/2-1/2"]

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5. O-O Be7 6. Re1
b5 7. Bb3 d6 8. c3 O-O 9. h3 Nb8 10. d4 Nbd7 11. c4 c6
12. cxb5 axb5 13. Nc3 Bb7 14. Bg5 b4 15. Nb1 h6 16. Bh4 c5
17. dxe5 Nxe4 18. Bxe7 Qxe7 19. exd6 Qf6 20. Nbd2 Nxd6

25. Nxf7 Rxe1+ 26. Qxe1 Kxf7 27. Qe3 Qg5 28. Qxg5 hxg5
29. b3 Ke6 30. a3 Kd6 31. axb4 cxb4 32. Ra5 Nd5 33. f3 Bc8
34. Kf2 Bf5 35. Ra7 g6 36. Ra6+ Kc5 37. Ke1 Nf4 38. g3 Nxh3
39. Kd2 Kb5 40. Rd6 Kc5 41. Ra6 Nf2 42. g4 Bd3 43. Re6
1/2-1/2

EPD

Extended Position Description. An extensible notation based on FEN. Intended for data interchange between chess-playing programs and for the construction of opening databases. Not used by Games::Chess.

Games::Cards is a Perl module for writing and playing card games.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Cards;
my $Rummy = new Games::Cards::Game;

# Create the correct deck for a game of Rummy.
my $Deck = new Games::Cards::Deck ($Rummy, "Deck");

# shuffle the deck and create the discard pile
$Deck->shuffle;
my $Discard = new Games::Cards::Queue "Discard Pile";

# Deal out the hands
foreach my $i (1 .. 3) {
my $hand = new Games::Cards::Hand "Player $i" ;
$Deck->give_cards($hand, 7);
$hand->sort_by_value;
push @Hands, $hand;
}

# print hands (e.g. "Player 1: AS 2C 3C 3H 10D QS KH")
foreach (@Hands) { print ($_->print("short"), "n") }

$Hands[1]->give_a_card ($Discard, "8D"); # discard 8 of diamonds

This module creates objects and methods to allow easier programming of card games in Perl. It allows you to do things like create decks of cards, have piles of cards, hands, and other sets of cards, turn cards face-up or face-down, and move cards from one set to another. Which is pretty much all you need for most card games.

Games::Baseball::Scorecard is a frontend to a PDF scorecard written in Metapost by Christopher Swingley (http://www.frontier.iarc.uaf.edu/~cswingle/baseball/scorecards.php). That scorecard is drawn out, and has a nice API for actually drawing out the elements of the game: all the ball, strikes, outs, etc.

Being Metapost, it is laborious to do all this. So this module provides a nice frontend, that also keeps track of balls and strikes and hits and runs and outs and more, making input of the game quite simple and efficient.

This module does not include the entire API, but most of it. Patches and ideas welcome. Feel free to call output directly if you want to generate Metapost on your own, or to modify the $SCORECARD variable (which contains the base Metapost code), or the $TEX (single page) and $TEXD (duplex) TeX files.

I wont give a tutorial on scoring baseball games, or on Metapost, below. Seek other resources (Swingleys URL above has a nice tutorial on scoring baseball games, using the scorecard he designed, which is what were using here).

Games::Go::Dg2Tk is a Perl extension to convert Games::Go::Diagrams to perl/Tk windows.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Go::Dg2Tk
my $dg2tk = B convertDiagram($diagram);

A Games::Go::Dg2Tk object converts a Games::Go::Diagram object into Tk::Canvas item. The close method calls Tk::MainLoop to dispays the collection of Canvases.

Bindings for the normal editing keys: Up, Down, Next (PageDown) and Prior (PageUp) traverse the NoteBook tabs. Tab and Shift-tab also work as expected.

Left and Right keys select the previous or next NoteBook tab, but dont display it. Space and Enter (carriage return) display the selected tab.

Games::Goban is a board for playing go, renju, othello, etc.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Goban;
my $board = new Games::Goban (
size => 19,
game => "go",
white => "Seigen, Go",
black => "Minoru, Kitani",
referee => &Games::Goban::Rules::Go,
);

$board->move("pd"); $board->move("dd");
print $board->as_sgf;

This is a generic module for handling goban-based board games. Theoretically, it can be used to handle many of the other games which can use Smart Game Format (SGF) but I want to keep it reasonably restricted in order to keep it simple.

Games::Go::Dg2PDF is a Perl extension to convert Games::Go::Diagrams to PDF (Portable Document Format).

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Go::Dg2PDF
my $dg2pdf = B convertDiagram($diagram);

A Games::Go::Dg2PDF object converts a Games::Go::Diagram object into a PDF file.
