The Algorithm::Numeric::Shuffle is a pure Perl solution. I wrote it years ago, 5.005 era I guess. The one in List::Util
is in XS and should be much faster than the one in
Algorithm::Numeric::Shuffle. I'd go for the one in List::Util,
unless you have an old version of Perl and can't easily build
XS modules yourself.

No reason beyond the fact that it was the first thing thing that came up on search.cpan.org for the term 'shuffle'. If List::Util is XS, it's almost certainly faster, so that probably is a better module to use.

I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.
