randomShuffle(BidirectionalIterator, BidirectionalIterator)

Shuffle a sequence with uniform distribution by performing as many random swaps as there are elements.

randomShuffle(BidirectionalIterator, BidirectionalIterator, Random)

Shuffle a sequence with uniform distribution by performing as many random swaps as there are elements.

randomShuffle(Container)

Shuffle a random access container with uniform distribution by performing as many random swaps as there are elements.

randomShuffle(Container, Random)

Shuffle a random access container with uniform distribution by performing as many random swaps as there are elements.

 public static void randomShuffle(BidirectionalIterator first,
                                  BidirectionalIterator last,
                                  Random rand)

Shuffle a sequence with uniform distribution by performing as many random swaps as there are elements. Time complexity is linear and space complexity is constant.

Parameters:

first - An iterator positioned at the first element of the sequence.

last - An iterator positioned immediately after the last element of the sequence.

rand - An instance of java.util.Random to use when calculating which elements to swap.

Throws: IllegalArgumentException

If the iterators are incompatible or if the containers upon which the iteratore operate is not a COM.objectspace.jgl.Sequence.

 public static void randomShuffle(BidirectionalIterator first,
                                  BidirectionalIterator last)

Shuffle a sequence with uniform distribution by performing as many random swaps as there are elements. Time complexity is linear and space complexity is constant.

Parameters:

first - An iterator positioned at the first element of the sequence.

last - An iterator positioned immediately after the last element of the sequence.

Throws: IllegalArgumentException

If the iterators are incompatible.

Parameters:

container - The container.

rand - An instance of java.util.Random to use when calculating which elements to swap.

 public static void randomShuffle(Container container)
