I don't know what your instructions are. But since you are posting to C++,
I presume the end result will be a C++ program. I would much prefer writing
the program to writing the pseudocode. I would have a class called player
and it would keep score and divulge the score when asked. It would have a
command called play which has a parameter describing the card. There would
be three player objects and each player would receive three calls on
play().
Main would create the objects, select the cards, issue the play function,
and collect and display statistics at the end of the program.
