shuffling cards I want to shuffle a deck of cards and then print out the top five cards. #!/usr/bin/perl @startingdeck = ("A H","2 H","3 H","4 H","5 H","6 H","7 H","8 H",                  "9 H","10 H","J H","Q H","K H",                  "A D","2 D","3 D","4 D","5 D","6 D","7 D","8 D",                  "9 D","10 D","J D","Q D","K D",                  "A C","2 C","3 C","4 C","5 C","6 C","7 C","8 C",                  "9 C","10 C","J C","Q C","K C",                  "A S","2 S","3 S","4 S","5 S","6 S","7 S","8 S",                  "9 S","10 S","J S","Q S","K S"); for ($x=0;$x<100;$x++){    $shuffle1 = shift(@startingdeck);    $ahuffle2 = shift(@startingdeck);    $ahuffle3 = pop(@startingdeck);    $ahuffle4 = pop(@startingdeck);    push(@startingdeck,$shuffle1,$shuffle3,$shuffle2,$shuffle4);    print "@startingdeck\\n"; } I know I'm meant to use loops. Maybe "for loops". I still don't quite understand the loops. I've read over the doc for loops several times. I want to learn this, so please provide me with hints and tips as opposed to plain solutions if possible please. Thanks Amichai
