A perfect shuffle (or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faro_shuffle faro/weave shuffle]) means splitting a deck of cards into equal halves, and perfectly interleaving them - so that you end up with the first card from the left half, followed by the first card from the right half, and so on:
 
<big>
A deck can be divided in two halves:

When you repeatedly perform perfect shuffles on an even-sized deck of unique cards, it will at some point arrive back at its original order. How many shuffles this takes, depends solely on the number of cards in the deck - for example for a deck of eight cards it takes three shuffles:
a b c d e f -> a b c | d e f
 
<big>
Perfect shuffling means taking one card from the first half, one card for the second half, and so on:

Perfect# shufflingWrite a function that can beperform a doneperfect onlyshuffle withon an even-sized numberlist of cardsvalues.
# Call this function repeatedly to count how many shuffles are needed to get a deck back to its original order, for each of the deck sizes listed under "Test Cases" below.
#* <small>You can use a list of numbers (or anything else that's convenient) to represent a deck; just make sure that all "cards" are unique within each deck.</small>
#* <small>Print out the resulting shuffle counts, to demonstrate that your program passes the test-cases.</small>

A remarkable feature of perfect shuffling is that the deck goes back to the start after a number that is fixed for every n (where n is the number of cards)

The shuffle routine:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> shuf=: /: $ /:@$ 0 1"_</syntaxhighlight>
 
Here, the phrase ($ $ 0 1"_) would generate a sequence of 0s and 1s the same length as the argument sequence:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> ($ $ 0 1"_) 'abcdef'
0 1 0 1 0 1</syntaxhighlight>
 
And we can use ''grade up'' <code>(/:)</code> to find the indices which would sort the argument sequence so that the values in the positions corresponding to our generated zeros would come before the values in the positions corresponding to our ones.
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> /: ($ $ 0 1"_) 'abcdef'
0 2 4 1 3 5</syntaxhighlight>
 
But we can use ''grade up'' again to find what would have been the original permutation (''grade up'' is a self inverting function for this domain).
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> /:/: ($ $ 0 1"_) 'abcdef'
0 3 1 4 2 5</syntaxhighlight>
 
And, that means it can also sort the original sequence into that order:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> shuf 'abcdef'
adbecf
shuf 'abcdefgh'
aebfcgdh</syntaxhighlight>
 
And this will work for sequences of arbitrary length.
 
(The rest of the implementation of <code>shuf</code> is pure syntactic sugar - you can use J's [[j:Vocabulary/Dissect|dissect]] and [[j:Scripts/Tracer|trace]] facilities to see the details if you are trying to learn the language.)
 
Meanwhile, the cycle length routine could look like this:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> shuflen=: [: *./ #@>@C.@shuf@i.</syntaxhighlight>
 
Here, we first generate a list of integers of the required length in their natural order. We then reorder them using our <code>shuf</code> function, find the [[j:Vocabulary/ccapdot|cycles]] which result, find the lengths of each of these cycles then find the least common multiple of those lengths.
 
So here is the task example (with most of the middle trimmed out to avoid crashing the rosettacode wiki implementation):
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> shuflen"0 }.2*i.5000
1 2 4 3 6 10 12 4 8 18 6 11 20 18 28 5 10 12 36 12 20 14 12 23 21 8 52 20 18 ... 4278 816 222 1332 384</syntaxhighlight>
 
Task example:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> ('deck size';'required shuffles'),(; shuflen)&> 8 24 52 100 1020 1024 10000
┌─────────┬─────────────────┐
│deck size│required shuffles│
├─────────┼─────────────────┤
│8 │3 │
├─────────┼─────────────────┤
│24 │11 │
├─────────┼─────────────────┤

├─────────┼─────────────────┤
│1024 │10 │
├─────────┼─────────────────┤
│10000 │300 │
└─────────┴─────────────────┘</syntaxhighlight>
 
Note that the implementation of <code>shuf</code> defines a behavior for odd length "decks". Experimentation shows that cycle length for an odd length deck is often the same as the cycle length for an even length deck which is one "card" longer.

A perfect shuffle can be done in two ways:
* '''in''': first card in top half is the first card in the new deck
* '''out''': first card in bottom half is the first card in the new deck
 
The method used here supports both shuffle types. The task states an '''out''' shuffling.
