Its a problem that's trivial if you are allowed to allocate an array/list that's the same size as the input but tricky if you have to do the operation in place (unless you already know the fisher yates algorithm).

There's probably a bunch of other examples of this kind, (easy out of place, tricky in place) but non come to mind atm.

Why would the developers be constrained this way when decks are like 60 cards long? Surely any app can spare that much memory.
