Box 29,Vianen, The Netherlands Lines: 12 Hi, I am looking for a set of functions ( C or Pascal ) to shuffle cards for bridge games. The cards of one hand should be made according some rules the user imposes. With this I mean that you should be able to say that that hand should have 15 - 18 points or that it should have 7 clovers, or that it should be a 3 3 3 4 (sans atout) distribution with at least 12 points etc... Hoping that somebody already solved this puzzle and is willing to share the solution with me and the rest of the net. greetings, Andre van Dalen. seismo|mcvax|targon|andre.
