Everybody loves playing cards because they’re fun. But as the geeky designers behind code:deck, playing cards can be educational, too!
Each of the numbers in a code:deck shows an example of a programming language. The Jack, for instance, is JavaScript and features a snippet of code that defines the cards. Here’s a breakdown of all the numbers and their corresponding programming languages:
- 2: Assembly
- 3: Bash
- 4: C++
- 5: Brainfuck
- 6: Python
- 7: Objective-C
- 8: C#
- 9: JAVA
- 10: PHP
- Jack: JavaScript
- Queen: CSS
- King: HTML
- Ace: SQL
The cards are all made of chrome matte paper with a UV coating on each side, so they stay fresh and smooth when you shuffle.
With just a snippet, you’re probably not going to learn the entire coding language. But for $US10 a deck, you’ll certainly smarten up your local poker game.
