842 <span>Card entropy has been implemented assuming cards are replaced, not drawn one after another.</span>
843 <span>A full deck with replacement generates 232 bits of entropy (21 words). A full deck without replacement generates 225 bits of entropy (21 words).</span>
844 <span>Card entropy changed significantly from v0.4.3 to v0.5.0. The old version can be accessed at
