◆ randomlyChooseOne()

public< T > T denoptim.utils.Randomizer.randomlyChooseOne ( Collection< T > c )

package

Chooses one member among the given collection.

Works on either ordered or unordered collections. However, be aware! If the choice you hare asking this method to make has to be random but reproducible, i.e., controlled by the random seed that configures the random number generation, so that independent runs of pseudo-random experiments will produce the same numerical outcome, then the collection must have a given order. A type Set is permitted by is not compatible with the reproducibility requirement.

Returns: the chosen item or null if the given list is empty.
