Updates to Deck-u-lator

Deck-u-lator has just been updated with several changes.  I hope you enjoy the new functionality.

Better mobile experience

Deck-u-lator is now a responsive web app with a display that adapts to smaller screens like phones and tablets.

Add a hand (advanced) 
Basic calculations are exactly as they were before.  Deck-u-lator has added an advanced calculator that lets you add alternate hands in your combination.  Thanks to Carson McFarlane who wrote to ask for "an 'or' function between cards".

Maximum (advanced) 
In the advanced calculator you can also enter an upper limit for the maximum number of a card to draw for your combination.  Thanks to Frank Karsten who wrote about calculations that are "not easy to do via Deck-u-lator".  I took that as a challenge to make it easier!  Maximum cards also work with alternate hands.

Better graphs 
Graphs are now updated to use the latest Google charts.  This interactive graph allows you to move the crosshairs.

Math formulas (multivariate hypergeometric) 
Thanks again to Frank Karsten for sharing formulas for more complex combinations.  I found them useful, so I added MathJax to display formulas for Deck-u-lator calculations.
