The objective is to distribute a deck of cards among two players. The code for the Shuffle Deck of Cards in Python can be used to shuffle the cards. The shuffle method, which is a built-in feature of the random library, is used to mix and randomize the order of the data before printing it.
Prerequisites: Python Classes and Objects
Steps to Shuffle Deck of Cards
- To shuffle the deck of cards we need to use the shuffle module.
- Import the required module
- Declare a class named Cards which will have variables suites and values, now instead of using self.suites and self.values, we are going to declare them as global variables.
- Declare a class Deck that will have an empty list named mycardset, and the suites and values will be appended to mycardset list.
- Declare a class ShuffleCards along with a method named shuffle() that would check the number of cards and then shuffles them.
- To remove some cards we will create a popCard() method in ShuffleCards class.
