IEnumerableT
An IEnumerableT that can enumerate the items of source in a randomized order.

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IEnumerableT. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Note

Subsequent enumerations of the returned collection shuffles the order of the items again an again.

Note

The enumerator of the returned collection does not support the IEnumerator.Reset method.
