From a standard pack of cards, I remove four cards, one of each suit, and one of each of he ranks Jack, Queen, King and Ace. I lay them out in a line face downwards. Now, you have been given the following facts:
(a) The Heart isn’t next to the Club.
(b) No card is next to its immediate senior in rank.
(c) The colors of the suits alternate.
(d) The king and Queen are facing opposite directions.
Identify the four cards and their correct order.
Did you mean "facing" as on opposite sides of the row? As in KJAQ? Because my deck allows only the spade queen and spade king to look the "wrong" way. I think there is a variance of where certain monarchs turn. At least all my aces face center!
I wonder?
