The Magic of Computer Science
This resource contains a series of card tricks. Each trick is presented in two parts. In the first part enough detail is given so that the trick can be performed. A description of the desired effect is given followed by an explanation of the mechanics of the trick – actually what is done to ensure the trick works.
All the tricks have a link to fundamental concepts and topics in Computer Science such as algorithms, testing, parity, binary, searching and sorting.
