How to compare card values or even store them ?

I'm pulling data from an API that gives me 1 card - and then I want to compare their values to see which one is higher with the next card.. how can I do something like that ?

My values are pulled from an API and they return 'K' for King, or '5' for 5, 'A' for Ace and so on.. but I'm not sure how could I compare values of different types together ?

You can use a dictionary.

var cards = {
 'A' = 14, // Ace
 'K' = 13  // King
}

Or you can use an enum like object:

const Cards = {
  A: 14, // Ace
  K: 13  // King
};

Create a Card-class and make it either Comparable more write a Comparator<Card>
