  2. Fisher–Yates shuffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle

    Finally, the sorting method has a simple parallel implementation, unlike the Fisher–Yates shuffle, which is sequential. A variant of the above method that has seen some use in languages that support sorting with user-specified comparison functions is to shuffle a list by sorting it with a comparison function that returns random values.

  3. Random permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_permutation

    A simple algorithm to generate a permutation of n items uniformly at random without retries, known as the Fisher–Yates shuffle, is to start with any permutation (for example, the identity permutation), and then go through the positions 0 through n − 2 (we use a convention where the first element has index 0, and the last element has index n − 1), and for each position i swap the element ...

  4. Reservoir sampling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_sampling

    A natural approach would be to shuffle the deck and then take the top k cards. In the general case, the shuffle also needs to work even if the number of cards in the deck is not known in advance, a condition which is satisfied by the inside-out version of the Fisher–Yates shuffle: [9]

  6. Shuffle algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuffle_algebra

    The interlacing is given by the riffle shuffle permutation. The shuffle algebra on a finite set is the graded dual of the universal enveloping algebra of the free Lie algebra on the set. Over the rational numbers, the shuffle algebra is isomorphic to the polynomial algebra in the Lyndon words.

  7. Perfect shuffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_shuffle

    Perfect shuffle may refer to: Faro shuffle , in particular the interpretation whereby cards (or more generally, entities in sequence) are divided into two equal piles and interleaved. Any shuffling algorithm that guarantees perfect randomness (all possible orders with equal probability), such as the Fisher–Yates shuffle .

  8. Bucket sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_sort

    The shuffle sort [6] is a variant of bucket sort that begins by removing the first 1/8 of the n items to be sorted, sorts them recursively, and puts them in an array. This creates n/8 "buckets" to which the remaining 7/8 of the items are distributed. Each "bucket" is then sorted, and the "buckets" are concatenated into a sorted array.

    Unity 2018 also included machine learning tools, such as Imitation Learning, whereby games learn from real player habits, support for Magic Leap, and templates for new developers. [32] The C# source code of Unity was published under a "reference-only" license in March 2018, which prohibits reuse and modification. [34]
