Multi-Bingo

Track and play multiple bingo cards simultaneously.

Originally written for a small event where I needed to play several bingo cards at once and could not keep up by hand. The first version hardcoded one specific session; I am generalizing it into a reusable tool. Work in progress.

What works today:

• CLI loop: enter a number and every card in the set is updated at once.
• Six sample 5x5 cards bundled in the source as a starting dataset.
• Centre cell handled as a free space (wildcard).
• reset clears all marks; exit ends the session.
• Marked numbers are highlighted with ANSI colours.

Not implemented yet:

• Automatic win detection (line / column / diagonal / full card).
• A "closest to winning" indicator across cards.
• Loading cards from a file instead of hardcoding them.
• A random card generator.

• Add win detection and a "closest to winning" ranking across cards.
• Card generator producing valid random cards (standard 1-75 ranges per column).
• Load and save card sets from JSON / YAML.
• Optional web or richer CLI (TUI) interface.
