Faro & Riffle Technique by Karl Fulves
The following are excerpts taken from the introduction: Part one of the present work deals with the faro techniques. The opening chapter on faro transforms describes a method of diagramming shuffle sequences in such a way that relatively complex operations are easily described.
Chapter Two is concerned with Gray Codes as applied to faro tricks. There's a tie-in with faro transform techniques of the previous chapter in the sense that transforms are used to bring cards to controlled positions in the pack.
Though not stressed in the discussion, the faro material described in these pages directly relates to varying aspects of recycling decks. The topics are easily handled through the use of computer techniques, especially where some date is required to prove out ideas one suspects of being true.
