Add a button called “Deal” which will re-deal all of the cards (i.e. start a new game). It should reset the score (and anything else in the UI that makes sense). In a real game, we’d probably want to ask the user if he or she is “sure” before aborting the game in process to re-deal, but for this assignment, you can assume the user always knows what he or she is doing when they hit this button.

Create a new button in storyboard:

Add 4 cards to the game (for a total of 16).

@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutletCollection(UIButton) NSArray *cardButtons;

Follow the detailed instructions in the lecture slides (separate document) to reproduce the latest version of Matchismo we built in lecture (i.e. the one with multiple cards) and run it in the iPhone (normal, non-Retina, non-iPhone 5) Simulator. Do not proceed to the next steps unless your card matching game functions as expected and builds without warnings or errors.
