If there was ever a node that deserves to make the Best Nodes, that's it...

I bookmarked it so I can read that article from ACM's digital library.

UPDATE: I read the paragraph in the ACM digital library, for algorithm 235. How did you ever find that citation? It is the algorithm, but he doesn't credit Fisher-Yates...

    You have to ask Knuth that question. I got both the Fisher-Yates, and the ACM citation from Knuth.

      Thanks, but the answer would probably come with great details, and comments on the typesetting of both the book and the article :)
