Good day bros. I would like to create a hash, then randomly reassign the keys (to support a randomization test). I know I can get a shuffled list of keys with
use List::Util qw(shuffle);
...
foreach my $k (shuffle keys %foo) {
...
}
but accessing that would leave the keys associated with the same values. I want to randomly reassign the keys to different values already in the hash. So if the original was
%hash = (
"a" => 1,
"b" => 2,
"c" => 3,
"d" => 4
};
I could end up with
%hash = (
"c" => 1,
"d" => 2,
"a" => 3,
"b" => 4
};
I can imagine how to do that in an inelegant way, but was wondering if there is an elegant way.
