Nothing obvious in the PHP 5 or 7 changelogs either. And the doc editor seems to be down so I can't check the page's edit history to see when the note was added. So tentatively and probably yes, that doesn't need to be there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-06-22 04:33:18] dharkness at gmail dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.shuffle --- This note should be removed unless equal values truly affect the shuffled order: If two members compare as equal, their relative order in the sorted array is undefined. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76516&edit=1
