python shuffle two lists in the same way
# Example usage using random: import random # Say you want to shuffle (randomly reorder) the following lists in the # same way (e.g. because there's an association between the elements that # you want to maintain): your_list_1 = ['the', 'original', 'order'] your_list_2 = [1, 2, 3] # Steps to shuffle: joined_lists = list(zip(your_list_1, your_list_2)) random.shuffle(joined_lists) # Shuffle "joined_lists" in place your_list_1, your_list_2 = zip(*joined_lists) # Undo joining print(your_list_1) print(your_list_2) --> ('the', 'order', 'original') # Both lists shuffled in the same way --> (1, 3, 2) # Use list(your_list_2) to convert to list
