method for shuffling elements of an array

Oct 29 2012 5:50 AM
Hello my friends.

I need a method which takes an array of element than returns it with elements which are in randomized order.

For that purpose I developed following method

        string[] shuffle(string[] a)
        {
       
         

             for (int i = 0; i < a.Length; i++)
             {
                 string tmp = a[i];
                 int randomnumber = rnd.Next(i, a.Length);
                 a[i] = a[randomnumber];
                 a[randomnumber] = tmp;
             
             }

             return a;
            
        }
but it returns sometimes the duplicate elements, which is wrong.

I need help.
