Since we can remember people have played card games for fun or even used them to become rich. In this thesis, we are going to dive into the mathematical aspect of card guessing games. In order to do so, we consider a deck of n cards riffle shuffles k times, and our ultimate goal is to verify if an optimal guessing strategy does exist and calculate it.

Abstract
Since we can remember people have played card games for fun or even used them to become rich. In this thesis, we are going to dive into the mathematical aspect of card guessing games. In order to do so, we consider a deck of n cards riffle shuffles k times, and our ultimate goal is to verify if an optimal guessing strategy does exist and calculate it.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
