Motivation

  • Provide a standard, efficient array shuffling utility (Fisher–Yates) for consumers of the library.
  • Keep the API consistent with existing utilities and support deterministic shuffles via an injectable RNG.
  • Expose the function in the main exports and TypeScript definitions so it can be used across the codebase.

Description

  • Added algorithms/fisherYatesShuffle.js implementing Fisher–Yates with an optional random function parameter.
  • Exported the function from index.js as fisherYatesShuffle and added a signature to index.d.ts.
  • Added tests in test/fisherYatesShuffle.test.js and updated test/compareAll.test.js to assert the function is exported.
  • Documented usage in README.md and updated the documented test count.

Testing

  • Ran the full test suite with npm test; new Fisher–Yates tests passed and overall run produced 150 passing with 2 failing.
  • The two failing tests are unrelated to this change and originate from soundex multilingual/custom mapping assertions.
  • Verified the new fisherYatesShuffle unit tests cover: immutability, element preservation, deterministic output with custom RNG, and empty-array handling.

The test count in the badge is incorrect. The PR description states that the baseline was 114 tests and this PR adds 4 new test cases (visible in the new fisherYatesShuffle.test.js file). The badge should show 118 passing tests, not 115. Additionally, the PR description mentions "150 passing" which is inconsistent with both this badge and the stated baseline.

The test count in this documentation section is incorrect. The PR description states the baseline was 114 tests and this PR adds 4 new test cases, so the total should be 118 tests, not 115. This should match the test count in the badge on line 5.
