384 - Shuffle An Array

#medium

Given an integer array nums, design an algorithm to randomly shuffle the array. All permutations of the array should be equally likely as a result of the shuffling.

Implement the Solution class:

• Solution(int[] nums) Initializes the object with the integer array nums.
• int[] reset() Resets the array to its original configuration and returns it.
• int[] shuffle() Returns a random shuffling of the array.

Example 1:
Input
["Solution", "shuffle", "reset", "shuffle"]
[ [ [1, 2, 3] ], [], [], [] ]
Output
[null, [3, 1, 2], [1, 2, 3], [1, 3, 2]]

Explanation
Solution solution = new Solution([1, 2, 3]);
solution.shuffle(); // Shuffle the array [1,2,3] and return its result.
// Any permutation of [1,2,3] must be equally likely to be returned.
// Example: return [3, 1, 2]
solution.reset(); // Resets the array back to its original configuration [1,2,3]. Return [1, 2, 3]
solution.shuffle(); // Returns the random shuffling of array [1,2,3]. Example: return [1, 3, 2]

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums.length <= 50
• -106 <= nums[i] <= 106
• All the elements of nums are unique.
• At most 104 calls in total will be made to reset and shuffle.

class Solution {

public:
    vector<int> nums_d;
    Solution(vector<int>& nums) {
        nums_d = nums;     
    }
    
    vector<int> reset() {
        return nums_d;
    }
    
    vector<int> shuffle() {
        vector<int> shuf = nums_d;
        random_shuffle( shuf.begin(), shuf.end() );
        return shuf;
    }
};

/**
 * Your Solution object will be instantiated and called as such:
 * Solution* obj = new Solution(nums);
 * vector<int> param_1 = obj->reset();
 * vector<int> param_2 = obj->shuffle();
