The shuffle() function in p5.js is used to shuffle the order of given array elements.
Syntax:
shuffle(Array)
Parameters: This function accepts a parameter Array whose elements are to be shuffled.
Return Value: It returns the shuffled array.
Below program illustrates the shuffle() function in p5.js:
Example-1:
function setup() {
// Creating Canvas size
createCanvas(500, 90);
// Set the background color
background(220);
// Initializing the arrays
let Array1 = [ 'IT' , 'CSE' , 'ECE' ];
// Calling to shuffle() function.
let Array2 = shuffle(Array1);
// Set the size of text
textSize(16);
// Set the text color
fill(color( 'red' ));
// Getting new shuffled array
text( "Shuffled array is : " + Array2, 50, 30);
} |
Output:
Example-2:
function setup() {
// Creating Canvas size
createCanvas(500, 90);
// Set the background color
background(220);
// Calling to shuffle() function on an array
// Taken as the parameter
let Array = shuffle([ 'Ram' , 'Shayam' , 'Geeta' , 'Anita' ]);
// Set the size of text
textSize(16);
// Set the text color
fill(color( 'red' ));
// Getting new shuffled array
text( "Shuffled array is : " + Array, 50, 30);
} |
Output:
NOTE: In the above codes, draw() function has not been used because if we use draw function then it does not give a clear output i.e, it keeps on changing the order of the array string continually and not giving any stagnant result.
