The documentation seems to indicate that partialShuffle:
Partially shuffles the elements of r such that upon returning
r[0..n] is a random subset of r, (which is what I want), but it
seems that partialShuffle actually only shuffles the first
subset of the range (which you could do probably also do by
[0..n].randomShuffle).
This different behaviour was problem created since:
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11738. Does anyone
know what the intended behaviour is/was?
Reading the current documentation and unittests, I now also
believe the fix was a mistake. Reopened the issue for now with a
comment: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11738#c2
I hope Joseph Rushton Wakeling looks into it soon.
