Feedback on C# - overall structur

Question

Hi

I have just finished the two C# courses and almost all of the Code Coach for C#. I'm new to programming but things are starting to fall in to place, or at least I think so.

I would really appreciate if someone with C# knowledge will read my code and give me a little feedback.

The task for this Code Coach is to evaluate the best hand in a Poker game (full description is included in the program).

The program consists of three classes.

class Program
{
//Read the user input and eventually print the result
{

class Poker
{
//Convert the input to some more useful data and evaluate the best hand based on what //hands are available
}

class RankOfHand
{
//Determine available hands
}

I would especially like to know the following:

1. Is the overall structure on the right track. If not how should I have approached it?
2. I don't like all the “else if” when evaluating the best hand, but what is the best alternative?
3. The straight method seems clumsy, is there a smarter way? (you don't have to give me the solution, but a hint would be nice)

Thanks in advance

1.The structure looks ok if you are going to use OOP

2. maybe use switch expression?

3.The straight-forward method is probably a functional or imperative, procedural approach. I wouldn't describe it as clumsy. It's probably more concise than OOP. Maybe first convert the input into a more useful format, then use switch expression or pattern matching to determine the result.

What Is It?
