The author's casual mention of 52! at the opening of the article triggered an OLD webpage that I saw many years ago<a href="https://czep.net/weblog/52cards.html" rel="nofollow">https://czep.net/weblog/52cards.htmlAnyone know how to determine the age of this page (it's got be at least 20yrs old)
To me it feels like a smuggled exponentation. If I take half of 52 and raise it to itself and add a base unit to it like grams or meters, that's an incomprehensibly large amount.
