Roulette is a classic casino game originating in France, the name is a combination of the french
words “little wheel”. It is purely a luck based game played on a table with no cards or dice, instead it
features a unique and iconic spinning wheel. European Roulette has a wheel with 37 positions
labelled 0 to 36. Positions 1 through 36 are marked with alternating red and black backgrounds and
position 0 has a green background. Generally considered to be a slower-paced Casino game, it
certainly creates a lot of suspense for the Players before the ball finds it’s final resting spot on the
wheel.
Bets are placed on various positions on the table that correspond to different numbers, combinations
of numbers, odd/even or red/black. After bets are placed a small ball is set in motion around the outer
rim of the roulette wheel in the opposite direction of the spinning wheel. When the ball comes to rest
in a numbered position, non-winning bets are cleared from the table and winning bets are paid
according to the paytable.
In our roulette implementation we model a Roulette wheel and use our Random Number Generator
(RNG) to choose a random position on that wheel.
