WeightedShuffle returns the list "sample" with only a portion of the elements switched. Examples: L := WeightedShuffle (X, 100) - returns a fully shuffled list L := WeightedShuffle (X, 50) - every other element is eligible to be switched L := WeightedShuffle (X, 25) - every fourth element is shuffled L := WeightedShuffle (X, 0) - nothing is changed The procedure will fail if the given percentage is not between 0 and 100, inclusive, or if it is not a numeric value.
