Moreover,during the oral examination, the ULAs offer additional individual explanations anddemonstrations to cover students’ conceptual and technical deficiencies.Final Project ECE175 Spring 2013The final project is to write a c program to simulate the card game called “War”. The rules are: 1. You are to play with a deck of 52 cards, ranking from low to high as follows: two, three, …ten, jack, queen, king and ace. There are 4 suits (H S D C) of each numbered and face cards, although for the game, suits are ignored. The deck needs to be shuffled, then deal 26 cards to each of two players (This is called a hand). 2. Each player places the top card face up on the table and the player with the higher card takes the
