The extra cost of eliminating "modulo bias" when generating random integers for a Fisher-Yates shuffle depends on the approach (classic modulo, floating-point multiplication or Lemire's integer multiplication), the size of the array to be shuffled, and the random number generator used. [19]: Benchmarking ...
