About This Calculator
This list randomizer performs an unbiased Fisher–Yates shuffle on your items.
Every item is equally likely to land in any position, and the shuffle is fresh each time you run it. Optional "items to pick" draws a random subset of that size instead of the whole shuffled list — great for prize draws or rotating small teams.
Shuffling runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the shuffle fair?
Yes — it uses the Fisher–Yates algorithm, which gives every possible ordering equal probability. The randomness source is the browser’s Math.random.
Can I use commas instead of line breaks?
Not directly. Put one item per line; if your list is comma-separated, the remove-extra-spaces or text tools can help split it first.
