Deal With It

deal.rb

# Customize FACE_CARDS, JOKERS, and SUITS however you like. Run this file by
# simply typing this at the command line:
#
# ruby deal.rb number_of_cards
#
# If number_of_cards is omitted, you'll get five. And obviously Ruby has to be
# installed, you have to be in the directory that contains the file (or supply
# the path to it), etc.
