It's possible that arrays do this anyway, but I think there may be some overhead if you repeatedly call array.length. So... var len : int = myArray.length; for (var i:uint = 0; i < len; i++) { var rand:uint = int(Math.random() * len); myArray.push( myArray.splice( rand, 1 )[0] ); }</p> Wed, 19 Jan 2011 08:02:18 UTC https://snipplr.com/view/47052/randomize-an-array https://snipplr.com/view/47052/randomize-an-array <p>This is useful.
