Dear R users,

I want a help to write an algorithm for swapping rows and columns in a matrix

This will "shuffle" columns, although 'randomly permute' is the more common word for this;operation:

set.seed(123)
mat[, sample(dim(mat)[2] ]

This will swap rows:

set.seed(123)
mat[ sample(dim(mat)[1],? ]
