What is a "card"?

A card is one of the 52 individual pieces in a standard deck of playing cards. Each card has two main features: a suit and a rank. The four suits are hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades, and each suit has 13 ranks, including numbers 2 through 10, along with a jack, queen, king, and ace. Cards are used in a variety of card games, with each game having different rules for how the cards are played and valued. Depending on the game, a card’s rank and its suit determine how it interacts with other cards during play.
