Shuffle a python list without using the built-in function

Question

I\'m working on writing two different shuffle functions.

The first shuffle function must take a list and return a new list with the elements shuffled into a random o

Answer 1

Plan: Go through the list from the beginning starting with element 0; find a new random position for it, say 6, put 0’s value in 6 and 6’s value in 0. Move on to element 1 and repeat this process, and so on through the rest of the list

import random
iteration = random.randint(2, 100)
temp_var = 0
while iteration > 0:
    # We will be swapping the value of i for j.
    # And then setting j to what i was using the temp_var place holder.
    for i in range(1, len(my_list)): # have to use range with len()
        for j in range(1, len(my_list) - i):
            # Using temp_var as my place holder so I don't lose values
            temp_var = my_list[i]
            my_list[i] = my_list[j]
            my_list[j] = temp_var

        iteration -= 1
