I had everything in there before I started coding and I was sure that I did have everything covered During this week I also collected information about tarot cards from a source that was published in Icelandic McCormack which I intended to translate to English and base my own interpretations of the cards on Since there are no language requirements in this final year project I have appended this work in Appendix E to show the state of this work despite the fact that I know the truth of it may possibly not be verified for marking purposes Even though I am fully capable of translating between Icelandic and English it can take me an inordinate amount of time because literal translations is not what I am looking for but demand of myself that the full range of the word is preserved between languages I am aware that this is an irrational demand but I am unable to accept less quality of work from myself Eventually I accepted that time had slipped away from me before I could complete my translations and so I inserted the text that accompanied the tarot deck that I had purchased for this project into my card facts U S Games Systems Inc 2004 LOK0283 Page 10 18 04 2006 Dr Nicola J Whitehead Martha Dis Brandt University of Akureyri B Sc Dissertation T R Y Tarot Reading Yourself I then extracted the necessary information to create the combinations rules from my documentation in Appendix E through several iteratio
