Subject: Cutting a deck of cards
From: rvinc...@gmail.com
To: python-list@python.org
Suppose I have a deck of cards, and I shuffle them
import random
cards = []
decks = 6
cards = list(range(13 * 4 * decks))
random.shuffle(cards)
So now I have an array of cards. I would like to cut these cards at some random
point (between 1 and 13 * 4 * decks - 1, moving the lower half of that to the
top half of the cards array.
For some reason, I can't see how this can be done (I know that it must be a
simple line or two in Python, but I am really stuck here). Anyone have any
direction they can give me on this? Thanks, RVic, python newbie

list(range(13 * 4 * decks)) == range(13 * 4 * decks)
;)
Wrong if you're using Python 3 :(
