A card system is a combination of a fifty-two card stack and a process. This process can be mathematical or mnemonic. It governs on the one hand the setup of cards in the stack, and on the other hand a way to know the position or the identity (or both) of each of the card in the stack.

Simply said, if arithmetic operations (+, -, X, ÷) are needed to find a card name or its stack-number, then it is a card system.

Among the oldest card systems, and by far the most well known, is the one popularized by Si Stebbins back in 1908.
