Write a simulation that empirically determines the odds of being dealt four of a kind in a 5-card hand. As input, it should take the number of hands to try. Note that if more than 10 hands are requested, the program will have to create a new deck after 50 cards have been dealt. You may have to simulate thousands of hands to get significant results. For each hand, check whether four cards with the same value are present, and increment a count. At the end, divide the total number of hands by this count to get the odds. For example, if the result is 35, you can report the odds as 1 in 35 hands.
