Re: Answer: How do I shuffle an array?

[wufnik]

I prefer japhy's one-liner, which achieves shuffling via fisher-yates:

@entry[-$i,$j] = @entry[$j,-$i] while $j = rand(@entry - $i), ++$i < @
+entry;

as an aside - this is in the snippets section. would it not be nice to use snippets, or grinder's fabled categorized snippets library, as a source of data for categorized q&a?
