I actually doubt there is any difference in any of the three scenarios. A - [1,2,3,4,5] B - [5,1,4,2,3] Given one pass to access each set, accessing set A randomly for values should give you results just as random as accessing set B regardless if randomly or in sequence On Fri, Jan 22, 2010 at 2:15 PM, Nicholas Loki <lokimwenga@yahoo.com> wrote:
Hi Wesley/ Rad, How about this:
Or, for that matter, a randomized set sequentially
You get a sequential set of random values.
sorted set randomly
You get a random value set with a high likelihood of some sortedness :-).
randomized set randomly?
Everything is random.
Caveat: No scientific basis to my observations :-).
