Card Combinations
Each of the 2048 BIP-39 words is equally likely to be selected. With 96
cards in each of the three decks, there are 96 × 96 × 96 = 884,736
possible triple draw outcomes. These are evenly divided across the 2048
words, so each word corresponds to exactly 432 unique card combinations
(884,736 ÷ 2048 = 432).
Technical Terms and Abbreviations
- KL (Kullback-Leibler Divergence)
- Measures how different the shuffled deck is from its original order. A higher score indicates a more random shuffle.
- PBKDF2
- A process that strengthens random data or passwords by repeating a calculation (here, 100,000 times), making the randomness more secure.
- Spearman (Spearman’s Correlation)
- Checks how much the order of the deck stays the same after shuffling. A lower score means a better, more random shuffle.
