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。

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)))])
}

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]
