下面是一个有效的Fisher-Yates shuffle数组函数:

private static void shuffleArray(int[] array)
{
    int index;
    Random random = new Random();
    for (int i = array.length - 1; i > 0; i--)
    {
        index = random.nextInt(i + 1);
        if (index != i)
        {
            array[index] ^= array[i];
            array[i] ^= array[index];
            array[index] ^= array[i];
        }
    }
}

or

private static void shuffleArray(int[] array)
{
    int index, temp;
    Random random = new Random();
    for (int i = array.length - 1; i > 0; i--)
    {
        index = random.nextInt(i + 1);
        temp = array[index];
        array[index] = array[i];
        array[i] = temp;
    }
}

下面是使用集合的完整解决方案。洗牌的方法:

public static void shuffleArray(int[] array) {
  List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<>();
  for (int i : array) {
    list.add(i);
  }

  Collections.shuffle(list);

  for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    array[i] = list.get(i);
  }    
}

请注意，由于Java无法在int[]和Integer[]之间平滑转换(因此int[]和List<Integer>)，它受到了影响。

下面是数组的泛型版本:

import java.util.Random;

public class Shuffle<T> {

    private final Random rnd;

    public Shuffle() {
        rnd = new Random();
    }

    /**
     * Fisher–Yates shuffle.
     */
    public void shuffle(T[] ar) {
        for (int i = ar.length - 1; i > 0; i--) {
            int index = rnd.nextInt(i + 1);
            T a = ar[index];
            ar[index] = ar[i];
            ar[i] = a;
        }
    }
}

考虑到ArrayList基本上只是一个数组，使用ArrayList而不是显式数组并使用Collections.shuffle()可能是明智的。但是，性能测试并没有显示上述方法与Collections.sort()之间有任何显著差异:

Shuffe<Integer>.shuffle(...) performance: 576084 shuffles per second
Collections.shuffle(ArrayList<Integer>) performance: 629400 shuffles per second
MathArrays.shuffle(int[]) performance: 53062 shuffles per second

Apache Commons实现MathArrays。Shuffle限制为int[]，性能损失可能是由于使用了随机数生成器。

看看Collections类，特别是shuffle(…)。

public class ShuffleArray {
public static void shuffleArray(int[] a) {
    int n = a.length;
    Random random = new Random();
    random.nextInt();
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        int change = i + random.nextInt(n - i);
        swap(a, i, change);
    }
}

private static void swap(int[] a, int i, int change) {
    int helper = a[i];
    a[i] = a[change];
    a[change] = helper;
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    int[] a = new int[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 };
    shuffleArray(a);
    for (int i : a) {
        System.out.println(i);
    }
}
}

下面的代码将实现数组的随机排序。

// Shuffle the elements in the array
Collections.shuffle(Arrays.asList(array));
