shuffle — Перемешивает массив
Функция перемешивает элементы массива в случайном порядке.
Функция не создаёт безопасные для криптографических целей значения, её нельзя использовать в криптографических целях или целях, которые требуют, чтобы значения возврата нельзя было угадать.
Безопасные для криптографических целей случайные последовательности создаёт композиция класса Random\Randomizer с движком Random\Engine\Secure. В простых сценариях пользуются функциями random_int() и random_bytes() с удобным и безопасным API-интерфейсом, который поддерживается безопасным для криптографических целей CSPRNG-генератором псевдослучайных чисел операционной системы.
arrayМассив.
Функция возвращает логическое значение true.

Пример #1 Пример использования shuffle()
<?php
$numbers = range(1, 20);
shuffle($numbers);
foreach ($numbers as $number) {
echo "$number ";
}
?>Замечание: Функция присваивает новые ключи элементам массива, который передали в аргументе
array. Функция удалит, а не просто переупорядочит ключи входного массива.
Замечание:
Функция сбрасывает внутренний указатель массива на первый элемент.
shuffle for associative arrays, preserves key=>value pairs.
(Based on (Vladimir Kornea of typetango.com)'s function)
<?php
function shuffle_assoc(&$array) {
$keys = array_keys($array);
shuffle($keys);
foreach($keys as $key) {
$new[$key] = $array[$key];
}
$array = $new;
return true;
}
?>
*note: as of PHP 5.2.10, array_rand's resulting array of keys is no longer shuffled, so we use array_keys + shuffle.Shuffle associative and non-associative array while preserving key, value pairs. Also returns the shuffled array instead of shuffling it in place.
<?php
function shuffle_assoc($list) {
if (!is_array($list)) return $list;
$keys = array_keys($list);
shuffle($keys);
$random = array();
foreach ($keys as $key)
$random[$key] = $list[$key];
return $random;
}
?>I needed a simple function two shuffle a two dimensional array. Please note the second level arrays must be indexed using integers, for example $myarray[0]["Name"] and not $myarray["One"]["Name"]. Here is the function:
<?php
function twodshuffle($array)
{
// Get array length
$count = count($array);
// Create a range of indicies
$indi = range(0,$count-1);
// Randomize indicies array
shuffle($indi);
// Initialize new array
$newarray = array($count);
// Holds current index
$i = 0;
// Shuffle multidimensional array
foreach ($indi as $index)
{
$newarray[$i] = $array[$index];
$i++;
}
return $newarray;
}
?>
Please note it only works on two dimensional arrays. Here is an example:
<?php
$myarray = array("Google" => array("Name" => "Google", "URL" => "www.google.com", "Usage" => "Googling"), "Yahoo" => array("Name" => "Yahoo", "URL" => "www.yahoo.com", "Usage" => "Yahooing?"), "Ask" => array("Name" => "Ask", "URL" => "www.ask.com", "Usage" => "Asking Jeeves"));
print_r(twodshuffle($myarray));
/* And the result is:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [Name] => Ask [URL] => www.ask.com [Usage] => Asking Jeeves ) [1] => Array ( [Name] => Google [URL] => www.google.com [Usage] => Googling ) [2] => Array ( [Name] => Yahoo [URL] => www.yahoo.com [Usage] => Yahooing? ) )
*/
?>
Hope you find it useful!Building on examples by m227 and pineappleclock, here is a function that returns all permutations of each set in the power set of an array of strings (instead of a string). Thanks for the great examples!
<?php
/*
Use: $arr = power_perms($in);

$in = array("A","B","C");
$power_perms = power_perms($in);

?>If you want the Power Set (set of all unique subsets) of an array instead of permutations, you can use this simple algorithm:

* array(array(a),array(b),array(c),array(a,b),array(b,c),array(a,b,c))

}
if (count($out) >= $minLength) {
$return[] = $out;
}
}
return $return;

?>This seems to do reasonably well as a shuffle() that preserves index assocation:
<?php
function ashuffle (&$arr) {
uasort($arr, function ($a, $b) {
return rand(-1, 1);
});
}
?>
Obviously only works if PHP has closures enabled...There is an function which uses native shuffle() but preserves keys, and their order, so at end, only values are shuffled.
<?PHP
/**
* Array Quake - Give an array good quake so every value will endup with random given space.
* Keys, and their order are preserved.
* @author xZero <xzero@elite7hackers.net>
* @param array $array
* @return boolean false on failure
*/
function array_quake(&$array) {
if (is_array($array)) {
$keys = array_keys($array); // We need this to preserve keys
$temp = $array;
$array = NULL;
shuffle($temp); // Array shuffle
foreach ($temp as $k => $item) {
$array[$keys[$k]] = $item;
}
return;
}
return false;
}
// Example
$numbers = array(
'ZERO' => 0,
'ONE' => 1,
'TWO' => 2,
'THREE' => 3,
'FOUR' => 4,
'FIVE' => 5,
'SIX' => 6,
'SEVEN' => 7,
'EIGHT' => 8,
'NINE' => 9
);
echo "\nBefore (original):\n";
print_r($numbers);
array_quake($numbers);
echo "\n\nAfter (Array Quake);\n";
print_r($numbers);
echo "\n";
?>
Result example:
Before (original):
Array
(
[ZERO] => 0
[ONE] => 1
[TWO] => 2
[THREE] => 3
[FOUR] => 4
[FIVE] => 5
[SIX] => 6
[SEVEN] => 7
[EIGHT] => 8
[NINE] => 9
)
After (Array Quake);
Array
(
[ZERO] => 4
[ONE] => 2
[TWO] => 0
[THREE] => 8
[FOUR] => 3
[FIVE] => 6
[SIX] => 1
[SEVEN] => 7
[EIGHT] => 5
[NINE] => 9
)Here is IMO the simplest and extremely fast way to shuffle an associative array AND keep the key=>value relationship. However, it ONLY works if there are NO NUMERIC keys AT ALL. Look into array_merge for the reason why.
<?php
$unshuffled = array('one'=>1,'two'=>2,'three'=>3);
$shuffled = array_merge( array_flip(array_rand($unshuffled,count($unshuffled))),$unshuffled );
?>
peaceI've been wondering why shuffle() doesn't provide the shuffled array as a return value instead of a bool. I mean, what could possibly go wrong in shuffling elements from an array?
So I use something like this:
<?php
function array_shuffle($array) {
if (shuffle($array)) {
return $array;
} else {
return FALSE;
}
}
?>This is a replica of shuffle() but preserving keys (associative and non-associative)
bool kshuffle ( array &$array )
<?php
function kshuffle(&$array) {
if(!is_array($array) || empty($array)) {
return false;
}
$tmp = array();
foreach($array as $key => $value) {
$tmp[] = array('k' => $key, 'v' => $value);
}
shuffle($tmp);
$array = array();
foreach($tmp as $entry) {
$array[$entry['k']] = $entry['v'];
}
return true;
}
$array = array('first' => 0, 'second' => 1, 'third' => 2);
kshuffle($array);
print_r($array); // [second] => 1 [first] => 0 [third] => 2
$array = array('first', 'second', 'third');
kshuffle($array);
print_r($array); // [1] => second [2] => third [0] => first
?>Many people in SEO need to supply an array and shuffle the results and need the same result each time that page is generated. This is my implementation with a working example:
<?php
function seoShuffle(&$items,$string) {
mt_srand(strlen($string));
for ($i = count($items) - 1; $i > 0; $i--){
$j = @mt_rand(0, $i);
$tmp = $items[$i];
$items[$i] = $items[$j];
$items[$j] = $tmp;
}
}
$items = array('one','two','three','four','five','six');
$string = 'whatever';
echo '<pre>';
print_r($items);
echo '</pre>';
seoShuffle($items,$string);
echo '<pre>';
print_r($items);
echo '</pre>';
?>Here i wrote a custom shuffle function which preserves the array index and distributes the array element randomly.
<?php
/*
* return an array whose elements are shuffled in random order.
*/
function custom_shuffle($my_array = array()) {
$copy = array();
while (count($my_array)) {
// takes a rand array elements by its key
$element = array_rand($my_array);
// assign the array and its value to an another array
$copy[$element] = $my_array[$element];
//delete the element from source array
unset($my_array[$element]);
}
return $copy;
}
$array = array(
'a' => 'apple',
'b' => 'ball',
'c' => 'cat',
'd' => 'dog',
'e' => 'egg',
'f' => 'fan',
'g' => 'gun'
);
print_r(custom_shuffle($array));

[c] => cat
[e] => egg
[f] => fan
[a] => apple
[b] => ball
