Abstract
Card tricks can be entertaining to audiences. Magicians apply them, but an in-depth knowledge of why they work the way they do is necessary, especially when constructing new tricks. Mapping a trick to its corresponding mathematical operations can be helpful in analysis, and the vice-versa process can help create new tricks and make them accessible to magicians.
