s = sample (m, n) ¶Return m unique random integer values from 0..n-1, sorted in ascending order.
Based on a code from Jon Bentley’s "Programming Pearls", see http://netlib.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/pearls/.
The following code
s = sample(4,8) % s should contain an increasing sequence of 4 integers from the range 0..7
Produces the following output
s = 2 4 5 7
