While we're on the subject of facts and figures ......, when you shuffle a deck of cards chances are that no one has ever shuffled them in that order before!

e think card games are pretty limited because there are only 52 cards, but it’s ridiculous how many combinations you have in these 52 cards. There are, of course, 52! possible combinations (remember the factorial thing above?), which is a humongous number:

1 / 8065817517094387857166063685640376697528505440883277824.

That number is beyond astronomically large, but that’s exactly how many ways you can arrange 52 cards. So when you’re shuffling a deck, shuffle it properly – and chances are you will create a completely new arrangement, one that no one ever created before.
