Randomizes the order of the values of an array, returning a new array
Example:
const tips_shuffle = ([...arr]) => { let x = arr.length; while (x) { const i = Math.floor(Math.random() * x--); [arr[x], arr[i]] = [arr[i], arr[x]]; } return arr; }; const foo = [2, 4, 6]; console.log(tips_shuffle(foo));
Output:
[4, 2, 6]
