这是最简单的方法。导入Gamplaykit到你的VC中，使用下面的代码。在Xcode 8中测试。

 import GameplayKit

 let array: NSArray = ["Jock", "Ellie", "Sue Ellen", "Bobby", "JR", "Pamela"]

 override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    print(array.shuffled())  
}

如果你想从数组中获得一个打乱的字符串，你可以使用下面的代码..

func suffleString() {

    let ShuffleArray = array.shuffled()

    suffleString.text = ShuffleArray.first as? String

    print(suffleString.text!)

}

swift 4.2有两个方便的功能:

// shuffles the array in place
myArray.shuffle()

and

// generates a new array with shuffled elements of the old array
let newArray = myArray.shuffled()

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)))])
}

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])
        }
    }
}

这里有一些可能更短的内容:

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

这是如何在Swift 3.0中洗牌一个种子数组。

extension MutableCollection where Indices.Iterator.Element == Index {
    mutating func shuffle() {
        let c = count
        guard c > 1 else { return }


        for (firstUnshuffled , unshuffledCount) in zip(indices, stride(from: c, to: 1, by: -1)) {
            srand48(seedNumber)
            let number:Int = numericCast(unshuffledCount)
            let r = floor(drand48() * Double(number))

            let d: IndexDistance = numericCast(Int(r))
            guard d != 0 else { continue }
            let i = index(firstUnshuffled, offsetBy: d)
            swap(&self[firstUnshuffled], &self[i])
        }
    }
}
