STEP 2:.
When a player pulls the lever, the computer records the next three
numbers generated. At this step, technically the computer has already
decided whether the outcome is a win, lose or jackpot.
STEP 3:.
The numbers are simplified by a mathematical formula to yield three
smaller numbers, typically one to three digits long. The new numbers
correspond to stop positions on each of the slot machine's reels. These
stop positions will have the corresponding symbols mapped in the computer
chips.
In C++ language, it can be following scripts to get a random integer
between min and len
rand() % len + min;
STEP 4:.
The computer rolls each reel into the correct stop position to reveal
the outcome. Each reel has 22 possible stop positions, and many of these
stops can be activated by more than one stop number (high-payout stops
are usually assigned fewer numbers, so the odds of getting them will
be lower). While video slot machines and online slots don't use mechanical
reels, the underlying process is the same.

A single Fortune Cookie symbol on the payline completes
the winning combination of a single Cherry symbol.
With 2 coins bet, a single Cherry symbol combination
pays out 4 coins. However, a Fortune Cookie symbol
is displayed, so the payout is 4 x 2 = 8 coins.
Two Fortune Cookie symbols and a 3-Bar symbol on
the payline, combine to produce a three 3-Bar symbols
combination. With 2 coins bet, a three 3-Bar symbols
combination pays out 100 coins. However, two Fortune
Cookie symbols are showing, so the payout is 100 x
4 = 400 coins.

Thunderstruck is a five reel, nine payline, and forty
five coin slot machine. It has a scatter and a wild,
multiplier symbol.
You are paid out for winning combinations on enabled
paylines only, except for scatter wins. The Rams symbol
can appear in any position, on any of the reels.
The Thor symbol does not complete a scatter symbol
combination.
Winnings are paid out on the highest combination
on each enabled payline only.
You are paid out for winning combinations on enabled
paylines only, except for scatter wins. The Rams symbol
can appear in any position on the reels.
The value of the Free Spins and Gamble Bonus Feature
prize is displayed in credits, not coins.
Malfunctions void all plays and pays.
Thunderstruck has two Bonus Features, Free Spins
and Gamble.
The Thor symbol is a wild, multiplier symbol. This
means that it substitutes for any other symbol to
complete winning combinations, except the scatter
symbol. The Thor symbol doubles the payout of any
combination it completes.
The Rams symbol is a scatter symbol. This means that
it does not need to appear in a line on an enabled
payline to win. It can be scattered anywhere on the
five reels, provided two or more Rams symbols appear.
The Thor symbol is a wild, multiplier
symbol. This means that it substitutes for any other
symbol to complete winning combinations, except the
scatter symbol.
The Thor symbol doubles the payout of any combination
it completes.
Multiple Thor symbols on a payline create winning
combinations as shown in the Payout Table.
1. Two Thor symbols and a single Ace symbol on an
enabled payline complete a three Ace symbols combination,
and pay out 10 coins. However, two Thor symbols are
displayed, so the payout is 10 x 2 = 20 coins. Since
two Thor symbols pay out 10 coins, you are paid out
for the three Ace symbols combination, as it is the
higher value payout.
2. Three Thor symbols and two Hammer symbols on an
enabled payline complete a five Hammer symbols combination,
and pay out 800 coins. However, three Thor symbols
are displayed, so the payout is 800 x 2 = 1,600 coins.
Since three Thor symbols pay out 200 coins, you are
paid out for the five Hammer symbols combination,
as it is the higher value payout.
3. Four Thor symbols and a single Nine symbol on
an enabled payline complete a five Nine symbols combination,
and pay out 100 coins. Since, four Thor symbols payout
2,000 coins, you are paid out for the four Thor symbols
combination, as it is the higher value payout.
4. Five Thor symbols on an enabled payline complete
a winning combination, as per the payout schedule,
and pay out 10,000 coins.
The Rams symbol is a scatter symbol. This means that
it does not need to appear in a line on an enabled
payline to win.
It can be scattered anywhere on the five reels, provided
that two or more Rams symbols appear.
Winnings are calculated by multiplying the number
of Rams symbols by the total number of credits bet.
If you have a scatter win and a normal win, you
are paid out for both wins, as the scatter symbol
does not need to appear on an enabled payline to win.
Example:
1. One Rams symbol and one Thor symbol scattered
anywhere on the five reels, does not complete a winning
combination, as the Thor symbol does not substitute
for the scatter symbol. A minimum of two Rams symbols
completes a winning scatter combination.
2. Three Rams symbols scattered anywhere on the five
reels, completes a scatter winning combination. Three
Rams symbols pay out the total amount of credits bet
multiplied by 5. If you have selected a 0.50 coin
and bet 5 coins on each of the 9 Paylines, your total
bet amount is 0.50 x 5 coins = 2.50 credits per payline
x 9 paylines = 22.50 total credits bet. Therefore,
your total payout is 22.50 total credits bet x 5 =
112.50 credits won.
3. Three Rams symbols scattered anywhere on the five
reels, and three Horn symbols on an enabled payline,
complete two winning combinations. Three Rams symbols
pay out 112.50 credits, and three Horn symbols pay
out 10 coins x 2.50 credits bet per payline = 25 credits.
Therefore, the total payout is 112.50 + 25 = 137.50
credits.
1. Always read the payoff information for each game. Know what your playing,
and choose the best payout percentage.
2. Figure out a money management system and stick to it. Or you might discover
you're out of money much before you expected.
3. If you don't have enough money to play the maximum number of coins on a
specific machine than it is always best to choose a game that has less paylines
so you can still bet the max and still have a chance at the jackpot.
4. Keep an eye out for the highest progressive slots games. Do some research
and find which ones have paid out and when. Choose the ones that have not paid
out for the longest period of time to maximize your chances of winning.
5. Look for online casinos that offer giveaways, bonuses, and comps. These
prizes can offset your loses.
6. Don't play more just to increase your comps.
7. It's best to play games with high payback and increase your winning opportunities,
than it is to play on machines with good recycling capability of coins but with
a low return.
8. If you find a casino or a specific slots game that is working for you then
stick to it until it turns sour.
9. Although it is a good guide, you should not assume that you have to win
just because you have been playing the same game all night. ALWAYS set a loss
limit. When you hit your limit, stop playing.
10. If you are having a big winning streak, it might simply be a really lucky
day. Take the time to make just a couple spins on one or two of the really big
jackpot machines. It's always worth a couple shots.

If you hit big on a machine you won't hit again.
Not true! - Slot machines have a computer chip that operates the
random number generator that causes a variation from 1 to several
billion combinations in a matter of milliseconds beginning the second
you spin. Whatever the number the random number generator is on in that
split second that you spun is what you see on the screen. This number is
compared by the computer chip, to a table in the memory and the result
is the combination you spun.
The casino can, at will, loosen the slots or tighten them up.
Not true! - The payout rates are set and can not be changed by the
casinos and these rates are audited by outside companies insuring fair
play. You must consider that a reputable casino puts it's reputation on
a very high set of standards and even attempting to change the payouts
would risk the integrity that the casino has built for itself.
If a machine hasn't hit in awhile it is due to hit.
Not true! - .The games are totally random due to the Random Number
Generator and do not 'remember' when it hit last and does not predict
when it will hit again. I have played at land based casinos and sat at a
particular machine for hours several days in a row and it never hit. And
on the same train of thought, I have hit a particular machine two or
three times in one sitting.
If you get up from a machine and someone else sits down and hits
the big one, this means that if you hadn't moved you would have won.
Not true! - No matter whether it's you or the next person in line, the
spinner must hit the spin button at the precise time that the Random
Number Generator lines up with the winning combination. The odds of you
hitting the button at the same millisecond as the 'next' player are not
calculatable.
You are least likely to win at a slot machine.
Not true! - .Slot machines have among the highest payouts of any
video gambling machines.
Odds are changed to pay higher on weekends or other high traffic
times.
Not true! Again going back to the integrity of the casino and the
ability to change the payouts, the casino has no control over this as it
is all done with the Random Number Generator and in the case of land
based casinos, the machines arrive at the casino with the Random Number
Generators preset.
All winning combinations have an equal chance of being hit:.
Not true! -. The larger the payout on a win, the smaller the
chance a player has to get that win. Therefore, a player most likely
will win many small combinations in a sitting,
and winning the actual big payoff has a much less probability of being
hit. This is why it is called gambling, you're taking a chance and have
no assurances of winning but you
do have the promise of a fair chance.That's all for now. If
