A STORY ABOUT THE REELS MEWC CASE

TASK

No, we will not be dealing with social media content here. Instead, we will revise the old mechanical slot machines.

You are creating an online game, similar to slot machines. However, you don’t want to use it for gambling, so the game is free and instead of money the players will be awarded points. The game will use a total of 5 reel strips with 19 sectors each. There are a total of 8 different symbols – 1 symbol at each sector. For Level 1 and Level 2 you will need to use only the first reel, the left-most.

The game starts with all the 5 reels standing on the starting sector as shown to the right (the sector with the cherry). For each turn you will be given the number of sectors that each reel rolls. Remember, that reel strips when placed onto the reels make closed cirles, so if you need to roll 19 sectors, you will get exactly to the starting point. Your goal in the game is to calculate the number of points scored by the player in each game.
