Paper: No Feedback? No Worries! The art of guessing the right card

Accompanied Maple program: NoFeedBack

Sample Input-Output File 1: Section 0, Matrix M_{n,k} of decks of n cards after k shuffles

Sample Input-Output File 2: Section 0, Best guess strategy of deck of n cards after k shuffles, calculate empirically

Sample Input-Output File 3: Section 2, F_L(x) for some specific L, calculated from nested sum defintion (although Maple can't simplify to the simplest form)

Sample Input-Output File 4: Section 6, Theorem 9, the error from CLT (ii) mentioned in the paper, calculated empirically for each k and i

This is our another take on the analysis of card shuffling: riffle shuffle version. Last year we contributed on "with feedback" version. This year we did this "with no feedback" version.
