::::A split isn't out of the question either. I guess we could start with both of the shuffles I described and see if anyone makes any others. I think we should make them subpages of [[Card shuffles]] if we do that though (e.g. [[Card shuffles/Overhand]] and [[Card shuffles/Riffle]]). Since these are based on shuffles used for playing cards I think it would be good to group them separately from more CS-oriented shuffles like [[Knuth shuffle]]. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] ([[User talk:Mwn3d|talk]]) 17:28, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
:::::I'll note also that the java implementation uses 1 iteration and 10 iterations for its examples, and uses an example "deck" of 20 integers. Anyways, as much non-procedural detail as makes sense probably goes in the task description. And, I guess also think about what if the language built-in shuffle is Knuth - it's sort of sounding like you don't want that - that you want shuffles with imperfections. So that "needs to be imperfect" belongs in the task description, I think. Like, maybe these numbers are for use in a statistics class, or something... --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 19:09, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
