     I'd advise against this, because the ordering depends not on the
Card, but on the rules of whatever game is being played.  There are
games where Ace is high, games where it is low, games where it can
be either at the discretion of the player, and for all I know there
may be games where Ace can lie between King and Deuce.  And then
there's the question of suit: How does the Seven of Hearts compare
to the Jack of Clubs? Would knowing whether Hearts are trumps affect
your answer?
