x <- rep(c("A","B"), each=12)

x
  [1] "A" "A" "A" "A" "A" "A" "A" "A" "A" "A" "A"
[12] "A" "B" "B" "B" "B" "B" "B" "B" "B" "B" "B"
[23] "B" "B"

# "sample(x) generates a random permutation of the elements of x"

g <- sample(x)

g
  [1] "A" "A" "B" "A" "B" "B" "B" "B" "A" "B" "A"
[12] "A" "B" "A" "A" "A" "B" "B" "B" "A" "A" "B"
