flopscope.numpy.random.RandomState.permutation
fnp.random.RandomState.permutation(self, x)
Randomly permute a sequence, or return a permuted range.
Adapted from NumPy docs np.random.RandomState.permutation
Cost
Flopscope Context
Legacy permutation; cost = shape[axis] (Fisher-Yates draws). RandomState has no axis kwarg; defaults to 0.
If x is a multi-dimensional array, it is only shuffled along its
first index.
Note.
New code should use the permutation method of a Generator instance instead; please see the random-quick-start.
Parameters
- x:int or array_like
If
xis an integer, randomly permute flops.arange(x). Ifxis an array, make a copy and shuffle the elements randomly.
Returns
- out:ndarray
Permuted sequence or array range.

Examples
>>> flops.random.permutation(10)
array([1, 7, 4, 3, 0, 9, 2, 5, 8, 6]) # random>>> flops.random.permutation([1, 4, 9, 12, 15])
array([15, 1, 9, 4, 12]) # random>>> arr = flops.arange(9).reshape((3, 3))
>>> flops.random.permutation(arr)
array([[6, 7, 8], # random
[0, 1, 2],
[3, 4, 5]])
