== Intro ==
Monopoly Simulator simulates the game Monopoly (thanks, cap!). It throws dice, moves tokens, buys property, builds houses and hotels, tracks money, property, community chest and chance cards and so on. One game normally takes only a fraction of a second, so hundreds and thousands of games can be simulated in a matter of minutes.
Simulation can be used for testing various theories about Monopoly, such as the probability of an endless game, benefits and drawbacks of certain strategies and so on.
Some results of the tests done using this program can be found on the Youtube channel “Games Computers Play”.
Program is not ideal: some features are still under development (jail time, variable starting capital), some may be disputed (trading logic), some were omitted completely (auctions). Still, it tries to be true to the original game and get as close as realistically possible to a game played by humans.
There is quite a lot that can be done, so if you are interested in simulation Monopoly – feel free to fork or contribute to the project.
Note: I, GamesComputersPlay, the original author of the code, am not a professional programmer, so there can be some room for improvement regarding code quality. I am open to constructive criticism and help in this area.
