Randomizing a simple array of strings

Ruby
1

OK, this is pretty bad for a CS grad to ask, but my brain is worn out
today.

I building a list of words (storing them in an Array).

I want to randomize the order.

Can anyone point me to a tutorial or common algorithm for that?

Thank you,

Michael G.
