| Summary : Randomly pick (and remove) an element from a set.
|
Description :
\'Tie::Pick\' lets you randomly pick an element from a set, and have that
element removed from the set.
The set to pick from is given as an list of extra parameters on tieing the
scalar. If the set is exhausted, the scalar will have the undefined value.
A new set to pick from can be given by assigning a reference to an array of
the values of the set to the scalar.
The algorithm used for picking values of the set is a variant of the
Fisher-Yates algorithm, as discussed in Knuth [3]. It was first published
by Fisher and Yates [2], and later by Durstenfeld [1]. The difference is
that we only perform one iteration on each look up.
If you want to pick elements from a set, without removing the element after
picking it, see the \'Tie::Select\' module.
