I'm going to implement it "by the book" - which is something of a joke as a shuffle, since it always retains the order of the deck - until we get a better specification. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 13:32, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
:The overhand shuffle is implemented in Java as the first few seconds of this video: https://youtu.be/x5tLNHuvf6s. Impossible singlehandedly probably but luckily most people have two hands. The "new" deck is just in the other hand in real life. The way it's explained on Wikipedia does seem a bit off. It should probably say the cuts are taken from the top of the deck and placed on top of the new deck. Neither the riffle nor overhand shuffle are good shuffles in computer science terms. They're just easy for meatbags to do in real life. Don't worry about it actually accomplishing a good shuffle. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] ([[User talk:Mwn3d|talk]]) 03:42, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
== Added definitions ==
I have added definitions of the riffle and overhand shuffles straight on the page so that we can standardize better here. Let me know if anything sounds unclear or incorrect. I'm not rushing to get this task ready for prime time so any corrections can still happen. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] ([[User talk:Mwn3d|talk]]) 14:25, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
