Is using Random and OrderBy a good shuffle algorithm?

Question

I have read an article about various shuffle algorithms over at Coding Horror. I have seen that somewhere people have done this to shuffle a list:

var r = ne         


        

Answer 1

Slightly unrelated, but here is an interesting method (that even though it is really excessibe, has REALLY been implemented) for truly random generation of dice rolls!

Dice-O-Matic

The reason I'm posting this here, is that he makes some interesting points about how his users reacted to the idea of using algorithms to shuffle, over actual dice. Of course, in the real world, such a solution is only for the really extreme ends of the spectrum where randomness has such an big impact and perhaps the impact affects money ;).
