setPairsfunction

EVERY PAIR THE SET HOLDS, 72 of them: each ordinary face twice (four copies), and the eight bonus tiles as four pairs — two flowers and two seasons, split at random under the usual rule, or four faces drawn twice each under the Identical rule. random decides the splits; the order is the set's, and the deal shuffles it.

sets is how many sets a mega layout is dealt (2 for 288 tiles, 4 for 576), 1 unless said, and a deal of one set is exactly what it has always been. More sets are each set's pairs again, with one difference under the usual rule: a flower or a season is dealt once, since a deal that held one twice would be read as the Identical rule (bonusRuleOf). The bonus pairs a further set would have held are four more pairs of ordinary faces, drawn at random, so the tile count is the same.
