That's why you draw a diagonal line down the side of the deck with a magic marker, so it's easier to re-order them.
Hmmm, I'm feeling a need to add a card reader or papertape reader to the robot.
Never actually programmed with cards (yes to papertape, tho), but during my early undergrad years the old course registration system used punchcards, and if you went and found the old manual cardpunch in the Computer Science department, you could make your own cards and do things add seats to a section and stuff like that. Much fun was had, especially since the enrollment thing was basically one big black market anyways.
Bringing this back to the college advise topic: Don't get caught hacking into the school's computers.
