Here is the meat of the code:
var maxSize = 3*3*3*3;
for(var i = 0; i < maxSize; ++i){
var a = Math.floor(i/27) % 3;
var b = Math.floor(i/9) % 3;
var c = Math.floor(i/3) % 3;
var d = i % 3;
$("body").append(a + "," + b + "," + c + "," + d );
$("body").append("<br />");
}
essentially using modulus and a little linear math. You want cards.push[apush([a,b,c,d])
instead of appending to body. You can change the ordering if you want it a different way.
