Hi,

I need a Javascript random number scrambler for my website. Seems simple, but I can not figure out how to do it. Can anyone help me out?

I have the following array of numbers:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

I would like to be able to have these numbers scrambled randomly. Like the following:

3 6 4 2 9 5 1 8 7

or

4 1 7 3 5 9 2 6 8

So, specifically, I would like a function that takes in an array of numbers (1 - n) and then returns that same array of numbers - scrambled randomly with different calls to the function.

Maybe a noob function, but can't seem to figure it out.

Thanks!
