Card Shuffling in C#

by

Use Fisher-Yates shuffle.

Your C# code should look something like this:

static public class FisherYates
{
    static Random r = new Random();
    //  Based on Java code from wikipedia:
    //  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher-Yates_shuffle
    static public void Shuffle(int[] deck)
    {
        for (int n = deck.Length - 1; n > 0; --n)
        {
            int k = r.Next(n+1);
            int temp = deck[n];
            deck[n] = deck[k];
            deck[k] = temp;
        }
    }
}
