Rangoon
The name is abbreviated from the Dutch name of the solitaire game,
Rangeerstation. In Germany it is known as
Rangierbahnhof. Both names mean shunting
station.
From the Help File:
Rangoon is a solitaire card game played with 52 cards.
After shuffling the deck, the cards will be laid down face up in four
horizontal rows of thirteen cards each. Subsequently the four kings
are taken up, and put down in front of the rows, leaving four gaps
in the rows.
The object is to rearrange the cards by using the gaps, such that each
row contains all the cards of the same suit in the correct order. A
card can be moved to a gap, provided the card is one lower rank than
the card in front of the gap. Four gaps are created by moving the
kings after the deal.
The game ends when no more card can be moved.
