I'm not convinced. Rolling d...@nomic.net is a completely separate (statistically independent) random event from the card destruction. If there are several platonic random events "pending", can I randomize once for all of them? For example, if I have (numbers invented for didactic purposes) 3 of 10 cards destroyed, can I do this: rseed = rand()%360 + 1; first_card = rseed%10; second_card = rseed%9; third_card = rseed%8; ? I think the caller's arguments are correct.
