Or if for some reason you want to do it in place:
cards[x:], cards[:x] = cards[:x], c

Doing a random thing to a random thing usually *does* lower entropy when

Why on Earth would you want to? "Cutting" a deck makes no sense in software.
Randomize the deck properly (Google "Fisher-Yates") and start dealing. Cutting
the deck will not make it any more random, and in fact will probably make it
worse depending on how you choose the cutpoint.

Ah, brilliant -- yes, this is so much more elegant in Python:
#now cut the cards
x = random.randrange(2,range(13 * 4 * decks))
cards = cards[x:]+cards[:x]

So now I have an array of cards. I would like to cut these cards at some random
point (between 1 and 13 * 4 * decks -
