### shuffle
Randomizes the order of the values of an list, returning a new list.
Uses the [Fisher-Yates algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher%E2%80%93Yates_shuffle) to reorder the elements of the list.
```python
from copy import deepcopy
from random import randint
def shuffle(arr):
temp_arr = deepcopy(arr)
m = len(temp_arr)
while(m):
m -= 1
i = randint(0, m)
temp_arr[m], temp_arr[i] = temp_arr[i], temp_arr[m]
return temp_arr
```
``` python
foo = [1,2,3]
shuffle(foo) # [2,3,1] , foo = [1,2,3]
```
