你也可以使用通用交换函数，实现前面提到的Fisher-Yates:

for idx in 0..<arr.count {
  let rnd = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(idx)))
  if rnd != idx {
    swap(&arr[idx], &arr[rnd])
  }
}

或者更简洁:

for idx in 0..<steps.count {
  swap(&steps[idx], &steps[Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(idx)))])
}

这里有一些可能更短的内容:

sorted(a) {_, _ in arc4random() % 2 == 0}

以Nate的算法为例，我想看看Swift 2和协议扩展会是什么样子。

这是我想到的。

extension MutableCollectionType where Self.Index == Int {
    mutating func shuffleInPlace() {
        let c = self.count
        for i in 0..<(c - 1) {
            let j = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(c - i))) + i
            swap(&self[i], &self[j])
        }
    }
}

extension MutableCollectionType where Self.Index == Int {
    func shuffle() -> Self {
        var r = self
        let c = self.count
        for i in 0..<(c - 1) {
            let j = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(c - i))) + i
            swap(&r[i], &r[j])
        }
        return r
    }
}

现在，任何MutableCollectionType都可以使用这些方法，因为它使用Int作为索引

这是我所使用的:

func newShuffledArray(array:NSArray) -> NSArray {
    var mutableArray = array.mutableCopy() as! NSMutableArray
    var count = mutableArray.count
    if count>1 {
        for var i=count-1;i>0;--i{
            mutableArray.exchangeObjectAtIndex(i, withObjectAtIndex: Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(i+1))))
        }
    }
    return mutableArray as NSArray
}

这是Nate为Swift 4实现的Fisher-Yates shuffle的一个版本 (Xcode 9)。

extension MutableCollection {
    /// Shuffle the elements of `self` in-place.
    mutating func shuffle() {
        for i in indices.dropLast() {
            let diff = distance(from: i, to: endIndex)
            let j = index(i, offsetBy: numericCast(arc4random_uniform(numericCast(diff))))
            swapAt(i, j)
        }
    }
}

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

这些变化是:

约束indexes . iterator . element == Index现在是部分 的收集协议，并且不需要强加于 扩展了。 交换元素必须通过调用集合上的swapAt()来完成， 添加mutableccollection . swapat(_:_:)。 Element是Iterator.Element的别名。

如果你想使用简单的Swift For循环函数，使用这个->

var arrayItems = ["A1", "B2", "C3", "D4", "E5", "F6", "G7", "H8", "X9", "Y10", "Z11"]
var shuffledArray = [String]()

for i in 0..<arrayItems.count
{
    let randomObject = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(items.count)))

    shuffledArray.append(items[randomObject])

    items.remove(at: randomObject)
}

print(shuffledArray)

Swift Array使用扩展名->

extension Array {
    // Order Randomize
    mutating func shuffle() {
        for _ in 0..<count {
            sort { (_,_) in arc4random() < arc4random() }
        }
    }
}
