Card	A `Card` has a `Rank` and a `Suit` and represents a card from the normal 52-card playing deck.
Deck	The `Deck` represents a deck of zero or more cards. Internally the deck consists of an undealt and a dealt pile of cards. The undealt pile starts off empty and receives cards as they are dealt from the undealt pile.
Hand	A `Hand` is zero or more cards that represents some aspect of a game, e.g. the cards a person is holding. A hand may be shuffled or sorted and there are functions for adding or removing cards. Unlike a `Deck`, there is no concept of dealt or undealt cards.

Rank	This enumeration holds the ranks in a standard deck of cards.
Suit	This enumeration holds the suits in a standard deck of cards.
