Congrats and thank you for keeping this blog so interesting!
ReplyDeleteIn this post you brought a very interesting problem of shuffling elements randomly, which has many solutions, most of which, despite looking reasonable, are wrong :) The tricky part is proving that all permutations are equally possible, since it requires probability theory and math, which is your area of expertise :) I always use Knuth's algorithm, also known as Fisher-Yates algorithm, for shuffling arrays, since it's super easy to implement and even such a math noob as I can prove that probability of every element to end up in any cell is 1/n.
My implementation of Knuth's algorithm would be something like:
Random random = new Random();
for (int to = 0; to < importantPeople.Length; ++to)
{
int from = to + random.Next(importantPeople.Length-to);
string temp = importantPeople[to];
importantPeople[to] = importantPeople[from];
importantPeople[from] = temp;
}
It's a nice and easy exercise to prove that this algorithm is indeed fair to all permutations.
Thanks again and keep these posts coming!
Oh wow small variation that makes all the difference! Brilliant!!!
