Randomly permute the specified list. Note that the permutation order will always be the same for any given seed, unless the value for seed is 'false'.
| Usage | Returns | List.shuffle(seed) | List |
| Argument | Type | Details | this: list | List | |
seed | Object, default: null | A long integer to use as a seed for the randomization. If the boolean value of 'false' is passed, then a completely random and unreproducible order will be generated. |
