Re: [Boost-users] Does boost offer a random permutation function?

Thanks for this! After testing the 3 parameter variant of random_shuffle, with the appropriate seed, I see that it do the job. Scott McMurray wrote:

I am looking for a function that randomly selects a permutation of a sequence. For instance given "1,2,3", it would produce something like "2,1,3" randomly selected from all possible permutations.

Would std::random_shuffle do the job?
