Card sharp Albert (Foxy) Smith is writing a book on patience games. To double check the examples in the book, he is writing programs to find the optimal play of a given deal. The description of Clock Patience reads as follows: “The cards are dealt out (face down) in a circle, representing a clock, with a pile in each hour position and an extra pile in the centre of the clock. The first card goes face down on one o’clock, the next on two, and so on clockwise from there, with each thirteenth card going to the center of the clock. This results in thirteen piles, with four cards face down in each pile. The game then starts. The top card of the ‘king’ pile (the last card dealt) is exposed to become the current card. Each move thereafter consists of placing the current card face up beneath the pile corresponding to its value and exposing the top card of that pile as the new current card. Thus if the current card is an Ace it is placed under the ‘one’ pile and the top card of that pile becomes the current card. The game ends when the pile indicated by the current card has no face down cards in it. You win if the entire deck is played out, i.e. exposed.” Write a program that will read in a number of shuffled decks, and play the game.

將一副牌輪流蓋著發在13堆中(如上由A位置開始順時針，最後到K)，發完後掀開K疊最上面那張，然後再到該張牌的數字那堆掀開最上面那張，並將原卡牌掀開放在該堆最下面，一直重複直到該堆已無蓋著的牌。
