( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Really verbose and a bit machiavellic, but works:

use strict ; use warnings ; my $string = "This is a not so random string" ; my $randomized ; { my @chars = $string =~ /./g ; my %randindex ; for (my $i = 0 ; $i <= $#chars ; $i++) { $randindex{rand()} = $i ; } $randomized = join "",map $chars[$randindex{$_}], sort keys %randind +ex ; } print "$randomized\n" ;

It seems to do what you asked for:

$ for I in 1 2 3 4 5 ; do perl randomize_string.pl ; done dsg Tosnirtan sis r maton oih nomira sr s dh tiansiotoTgn s most g air dsi Tnrs anhnitoos tinradoo issaosh siTnt rmgn t n ssa hsgni tdrmosna Tiroio

Ciao!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
