This is my sentence:
The program should contain various problems in a random order, information, hints, and non-examined questions at the end.
So what is the difference between in a random order or in a randomised order and what is better for this sentence?
Best Answer
Random suggests the absence of any particular order, like leaves on the ground or static on a television. Randomized, however, means that that a random arrangement has been actively produced, like shuffling a deck of playing cards.
If your program simply chooses any text among a set of texts, then that's random order. If there is some routine in your program that assures that the order is indeed random, then that's randomized, i. e., made random.
