编辑:正如在其他回答中提到的，Swift 4.2最终在标准库中添加了随机数生成，并完成了数组变换。

然而，GameplayKit中的GKRandom / GKRandomDistribution套件仍然可以与新的RandomNumberGenerator协议一起使用-如果您添加扩展到GameplayKit rng以符合新的标准库协议，您可以轻松获得:

可发送的rng(在测试需要时可以复制“随机”序列) 为了速度而牺牲健壮性的rng 产生非均匀分布的rng

.．.并且仍然可以使用Swift中漂亮的新“本地”随机api。

这个答案的其余部分涉及到这些rng和/或它们在旧的Swift编译器中的使用。

这里已经有一些很好的答案，以及一些很好的说明为什么如果不小心，编写自己的shuffle可能容易出错。

在iOS 9、macOS 10.11和tvOS 9(或更高版本)中，你不必自己编写。GameplayKit中有一个有效且正确的Fisher-Yates执行方法(游戏邦注:尽管它的名字叫Fisher-Yates，但它并不只是用于游戏)。

如果你只是想要一个独特的洗牌:

let shuffled = GKRandomSource.sharedRandom().arrayByShufflingObjects(in: array)

如果您希望能够复制洗牌或一系列洗牌，请选择并播种一个特定的随机源;如。

let lcg = GKLinearCongruentialRandomSource(seed: mySeedValue)
let shuffled = lcg.arrayByShufflingObjects(in: array)

在iOS 10 / macOS 10.12 / tvOS 10中，也有一个方便的语法，可以通过NSArray的扩展进行变换。当然，当你使用Swift数组时，这有点麻烦(并且它在返回Swift时失去了它的元素类型):

let shuffled1 = (array as NSArray).shuffled(using: random) // -> [Any]
let shuffled2 = (array as NSArray).shuffled() // use default random source

但是为它创建一个保持类型的Swift包装器非常简单:

extension Array {
    func shuffled(using source: GKRandomSource) -> [Element] {
        return (self as NSArray).shuffled(using: source) as! [Element]
    }
    func shuffled() -> [Element] {
        return (self as NSArray).shuffled() as! [Element]
    }
}
let shuffled3 = array.shuffled(using: random)
let shuffled4 = array.shuffled()

在我的例子中，我在数组中交换对象时遇到了一些问题。然后我挠头，开始重新发明轮子。

// swift 3.0 ready
extension Array {

    func shuffled() -> [Element] {
        var results = [Element]()
        var indexes = (0 ..< count).map { $0 }
        while indexes.count > 0 {
            let indexOfIndexes = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(indexes.count)))
            let index = indexes[indexOfIndexes]
            results.append(self[index])
            indexes.remove(at: indexOfIndexes)
        }
        return results
    }

}

SWIFT 4

func createShuffledSequenceOfNumbers(max:UInt)->[UInt] {

    var array:[UInt]! = []
    var myArray:[UInt]! = []
    for i in 1...max {
        myArray.append(i)
    }
    for i in 1...max {
        array.append(i)
    }
    var tempArray:[Int]! = []
    for index in 0...(myArray.count - 1) {

        var isNotFinded:Bool = true
        while(isNotFinded){

            let randomNumber = arc4random_uniform(UInt32(myArray.count))
            let randomIndex = Int(randomNumber)

            if(!tempArray.contains(randomIndex)){
                tempArray.append(randomIndex)

                array[randomIndex] = myArray[index]
                isNotFinded = false
            }
        }
    }

    return array
}

简单的例子:

extension Array {
    mutating func shuffled() {
        for _ in self {
            // generate random indexes that will be swapped
            var (a, b) = (Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(self.count - 1))), Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(self.count - 1))))
            if a == b { // if the same indexes are generated swap the first and last
                a = 0
                b = self.count - 1
            }
            swap(&self[a], &self[b])
        }
    }
}

var array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
array.shuffled()
print(array) // [9, 8, 3, 5, 7, 6, 4, 2, 1, 10]

Swift 3解决方案，遵循@Nate Cook的回答:(如果索引从0开始，请参阅下面的评论)

extension Collection {
    /// Return a copy of `self` with its elements shuffled
    func shuffle() -> [Generator.Element] {
        var list = Array(self)
        list.shuffleInPlace()
        return list
    } }

extension MutableCollection where Index == Int {
    /// Shuffle the elements of `self` in-place.
    mutating func shuffleInPlace() {
        // empty and single-element collections don't shuffle
        if count < 2 { return }
        let countInt = count as! Int

    for i in 0..<countInt - 1 {
        let j = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(countInt - i))) + i
            guard i != j else { continue }
            swap(&self[i], &self[j])
        }
    }
}

这个答案详细介绍了如何在Swift 4.2+中使用快速和统一的算法(Fisher-Yates)进行洗牌，以及如何在之前的各种Swift版本中添加相同的功能。每个Swift版本的命名和行为都与该版本的突变和非突变排序方法相匹配。

Swift 4 + 2。

shuffle和shuffle是原生开始Swift 4.2。使用示例:

let x = [1, 2, 3].shuffled()
// x == [2, 3, 1]

let fiveStrings = stride(from: 0, through: 100, by: 5).map(String.init).shuffled()
// fiveStrings == ["20", "45", "70", "30", ...]

var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
numbers.shuffle()
// numbers == [3, 2, 1, 4]

Swift 4.0和4.1

这些扩展将一个shuffle()方法添加到任何可变集合(数组和不安全的可变缓冲区)，并将一个shuffled()方法添加到任何序列:

extension MutableCollection {
    /// Shuffles the contents of this collection.
    mutating func shuffle() {
        let c = count
        guard c > 1 else { return }

        for (firstUnshuffled, unshuffledCount) in zip(indices, stride(from: c, to: 1, by: -1)) {
            // Change `Int` in the next line to `IndexDistance` in < Swift 4.1
            let d: Int = numericCast(arc4random_uniform(numericCast(unshuffledCount)))
            let i = index(firstUnshuffled, offsetBy: d)
            swapAt(firstUnshuffled, i)
        }
    }
}

extension Sequence {
    /// Returns an array with the contents of this sequence, shuffled.
    func shuffled() -> [Element] {
        var result = Array(self)
        result.shuffle()
        return result
    }
}

用法与上述Swift 4.2示例相同。

extension MutableCollectionType where Index == Int {
    /// Shuffle the elements of `self` in-place.
    mutating func shuffleInPlace() {
        // empty and single-element collections don't shuffle
        if count < 2 { return }

        for i in startIndex ..< endIndex - 1 {
            let j = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(count - i))) + i
            guard i != j else { continue }
            swap(&self[i], &self[j])

extension CollectionType {

        var list = Array(self)
        list.shuffleInPlace()

用法:

[1, 2, 3].shuffle()
// [2, 3, 1]

let fiveStrings = 0.stride(through: 100, by: 5).map(String.init).shuffle()
// ["20", "45", "70", "30", ...]

var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]

Shuffle是一种可变数组方法

这个扩展将让你洗牌可变数组实例的地方:

extension Array {
    mutating func shuffle() {
        if count < 2 { return }
        for i in 0..<(count - 1) {
            let j = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(count - i))) + i
            swap(&self[i], &self[j])
        }
    }
}
var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
numbers.shuffle()                     // e.g., numbers == [6, 1, 8, 3, 2, 4, 7, 5]

shuffle是一种非突变数组方法

这个扩展可以让你检索一个数组实例的打乱副本:

extension Array {
    func shuffled() -> [T] {
        if count < 2 { return self }
        var list = self
        for i in 0..<(list.count - 1) {
            let j = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(list.count - i))) + i
            swap(&list[i], &list[j])
        }
        return list
    }
}
let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
let mixedup = numbers.shuffled()     // e.g., mixedup == [6, 1, 8, 3, 2, 4, 7, 5]
