randperm

Random permutation

Syntax

• p = randperm(n)
  

Description

p = randperm(n) returns a random permutation of the integers 1:n.

Remarks

The randperm function calls rand and therefore changes rand's state.

Examples

randperm(6) might be the vector

• [3  2  6  4  1  5]
  

or it might be some other permutation of 1:6.
