I know there are half a million posts similar to this one but they aren't very helpful in what I'm trying to do..and easily. I am randomizing an array and I want to remove elements it already used.
use warnings; use strict; use Algorithm::Numerical::Shuffle qw /shuffle/; my @shuffled = shuffle (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7); #my $in_situ = [qw /one two three four five six/]; #shuffle $in_situ; print @shuffled;
That randomizes the array perfecty but how do I make it so I can display the first character it finds and remove it so it won't find it next time it's randomized?
