Python .shuffle()

The .shuffle() method takes a list as a parameter and randomly re-orders the contents in place.

Syntax

random.shuffle(list)

The list is the collection of items to be shuffled in place.

Example

After importing the random module, lists can be rearranged with .shuffle():

import random

my_list = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

random.shuffle(my_list)

print(my_list)

# Output: [2, 3, 5, 0, 6, 8, 4, 7, 1, 9]
