Yeah, so? I just wanted to show the zeroes, so you could see how obscenely gigantic the number is. 52! is not likely to be exhausted during the course of human history.

Of course, the part I didn't include is how these are not really random deck shuffles. Card are arranged in typical, repeating patterns, due to the fact that we are shuffling from a partially ordered state, based on the card combinations that happen during the course of card games.

Anybody care to take a crack at that?
