Re: Random Array Sort?

How about the fibanachi sequence. The value in array elem x is the value in array elemet with index -> x-1 + x-2 % ( rand() ) >>> Steve Keller <skeller@healthtvchannel.org> 10/18/02 12:43PM >>> I looked in the guide and couldn't find an easy way to do this, like a multisort, so I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone can point me to the command or share code if they've done something like this. I have an array with numbers in the fields, say 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in the first 5 slots. Now I want to sort them, but randomly. The only way I could think to do this is to create a loop, run it a random number of times, and in the loop, swap two random elements. Can anyone think of an easier/more logical way? -- S.
