... I wrote a similar function to do this:def monge_shuffle(deck): if len(deck) % 2: # Odd number of items. deck[:] = deck[0::2] + deck[1::2][::-1] else: # Even number of items. deck[:] = deck[1::2] + deck[0::2][::-1] return deck
Oooh, shiny fun!!! How's this for that:
def monge_shuffle2(deck):
even = (len(deck) ^ 1) & 1
return deck[even::2] + deck[-2::-2]
