public final class CardData

extends ItemData

implements java.lang.Comparable, java.lang.Cloneable, CardConstants

This class contains the necessary information to identify a card. This class is used in two ways: (1) as attribute of "RobotData" ( parameter of "getCommand" ) to provide the robot with his current hand of cards (2) as attribute of PutAction or ExchangeAction if the robot wants to put a card down or exchange it with another one in front of him made class final to allow no futher changes by groups nearly complete
