如果我们只需要以完全随机的顺序洗牌项目(只是在一个列表中混合项目)，我更喜欢这个简单而有效的代码，按guid排序项目…

var shuffledcards = cards.OrderBy(a => Guid.NewGuid()).ToList();

正如人们在评论中指出的那样，guid不能保证是随机的，所以我们应该使用真正的随机数生成器:

private static Random rng = new Random();
...
var shuffledcards = cards.OrderBy(a => rng.Next()).ToList();

IEnumerable扩展方法:

public static IEnumerable<T> Randomize<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source)
{
    Random rnd = new Random();
    return source.OrderBy<T, int>((item) => rnd.Next());
}

使用基于Fisher-Yates Shuffle的扩展方法Shuffle任意(I)List:

private static Random rng = new Random();  

public static void Shuffle<T>(this IList<T> list)  
{  
    int n = list.Count;  
    while (n > 1) {  
        n--;  
        int k = rng.Next(n + 1);  
        T value = list[k];  
        list[k] = list[n];  
        list[n] = value;  
    }  
}

用法:

List<Product> products = GetProducts();
products.Shuffle();

上面的代码使用了备受批评的系统。选择交换候选的随机方法。它速度很快，但并不像它应该的那样随机。如果你需要更好的随机质量，可以使用System.Security.Cryptography中的随机数生成器，如下所示:

using System.Security.Cryptography;
...
public static void Shuffle<T>(this IList<T> list)
{
    RNGCryptoServiceProvider provider = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider();
    int n = list.Count;
    while (n > 1)
    {
        byte[] box = new byte[1];
        do provider.GetBytes(box);
        while (!(box[0] < n * (Byte.MaxValue / n)));
        int k = (box[0] % n);
        n--;
        T value = list[k];
        list[k] = list[n];
        list[n] = value;
    }
}

Edit: Since writing this answer a couple years back, many people have commented or written to me, to point out the big silly flaw in my comparison. They are of course right. There's nothing wrong with System.Random if it's used in the way it was intended. In my first example above, I instantiate the rng variable inside of the Shuffle method, which is asking for trouble if the method is going to be called repeatedly. Below is a fixed, full example based on a really useful comment received today from @weston here on SO.

Program.cs:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading;

namespace SimpleLottery
{
  class Program
  {
    private static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      var numbers = new List<int>(Enumerable.Range(1, 75));
      numbers.Shuffle();
      Console.WriteLine("The winning numbers are: {0}", string.Join(",  ", numbers.GetRange(0, 5)));
    }
  }

  public static class ThreadSafeRandom
  {
      [ThreadStatic] private static Random Local;

      public static Random ThisThreadsRandom
      {
          get { return Local ?? (Local = new Random(unchecked(Environment.TickCount * 31 + Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId))); }
      }
  }

  static class MyExtensions
  {
    public static void Shuffle<T>(this IList<T> list)
    {
      int n = list.Count;
      while (n > 1)
      {
        n--;
        int k = ThreadSafeRandom.ThisThreadsRandom.Next(n + 1);
        T value = list[k];
        list[k] = list[n];
        list[n] = value;
      }
    }
  }
}

你的问题是如何随机化一个列表。这意味着:

所有独特的组合都应该是可能发生的 所有唯一的组合应该出现在相同的分布(也就是无偏倚)。

由于“随机”，这个问题的大量答案不满足上述两个要求。

下面是一个紧凑的、无偏倚的伪随机函数，遵循Fisher-Yates shuffle方法。

public static void Shuffle<T>(this IList<T> list, Random rnd)
{
    for (var i = list.Count-1; i > 0; i--)
    {
        var randomIndex = rnd.Next(i + 1); //maxValue (i + 1) is EXCLUSIVE
        list.Swap(i, randomIndex); 
    }
}

public static void Swap<T>(this IList<T> list, int indexA, int indexB)
{
   var temp = list[indexA];
   list[indexA] = list[indexB];
   list[indexB] = temp;
}

只是想建议使用IComparer<T>和List.Sort()的变体:

public class RandomIntComparer : IComparer<int>
{
    private readonly Random _random = new Random();
    
    public int Compare(int x, int y)
    {
        return _random.Next(-1, 2);
    }
}

用法:

list.Sort(new RandomIntComparer());
