About this Simulation

This interactive simulation models a strategic card game where Player 2 competes against a computer AI opponent. Players draw cards, calculate running sums, and apply modular arithmetic rules—specifically, tracking whether the sum of the last three cards yields a remainder that is a multiple of three. Learners explore number patterns, strategic decision-making, and how AI opponents respond to gameplay choices.

Learning objectives: Understand modular arithmetic and divisibility rules through practical gameplay | Develop strategic thinking by predicting outcomes based on card sums and remainders | Analyse AI decision-making patterns and adapt tactics accordingly
