Randomizing a list

[utz]

Hello everyone,

I hate to reinvent the wheel. Does anyone happen to have a list-randomization function you'd be willing to share? I'd like to pass it a CRLF-delimited text file and get another file back with the same lines but in a random order. I could use an array-randomization function instead of what I just described, of course.

Thanks for any help you can provide,
Utz

I found a VBscript solution here:

http://vb-helper.com/howto_randomize_list.html

As the author says, "For each item, the algorithm randomly selects an item at that position or later in the array and swaps the two. This produces a randomized list."

So there you go.

Thanks,
Utz
