# Boom Street venture cards table generator
Do you play [Boom Street](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itadaki_Street), also known as Fortune Street, Itadaki Street or Course À La Fortune ?
If so, you likely noticed venture cards play an important role in the game.
This repository provides a single, simple Python script that turns a text-based description of an 8x8 venture card board into an HTML page that describes each available card.
## How to?
### Step 0: install Python
This step is typically for Windows users as Linux/MacOS/BSD users typically
benefit from Python out of the box.
1. Download and install [Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
2. Learn [how to run a Python script](https://docs.python.org/3/faq/windows.html#how-do-i-run-a-python-program-under-windows)
### Step 1: describe a venture card board
Using your favorite [plain text editor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_editor),
describe any venture card board by writing 8 lines of 8 space-separated numbers:
```
42 65 52 46 95 75 27 2
85 9 77 18 99 26 36 57
100 37 40 43 5 71 53 96
62 58 38 106 72 73 60 16
4 76 83 86 81 10 3 23
80 78 56 13 39 1 63 22
94 74 55 67 33 82 91 87
20 31 29 14 45 48 50 93
Anything after line #8 is ignored.
Feel free to store comments or other data here.
```
In this example, we assume the board above is saved as "example.txt".
### Step 2: generate the HTML page
```shell
./generate.py < example.txt > example.html
```
### Step 3: open the HTML page
Using your favorite browser (e.g. Firefox or Chrome), open the resulting file (here, `example.html`).
