 /**
- * Randomizes the order of the elements of an array. Implements
- * <a href='http://Bost.Ocks.org/mike/shuffle/' target=_blank>
- * Fisher-Yates Shuffle Algorithm</a>.
+ * Shuffles the elements of an array.
+ *
+ * The first parameter, `array`, is the array to be shuffled. For example,
+ * calling `shuffle(myArray)` will shuffle the elements of `myArray`. By
+ * default, the original array won’t be modified. Instead, a copy will be
+ * created, shuffled, and returned.
+ *
+ * The second parameter, `modify`, is optional. If `true` is passed, as in
+ * `shuffle(myArray, true)`, then the array will be shuffled in place without
+ * making a copy.
  *
  * @method shuffle
- * @param  {Array}   array  Array to shuffle
- * @param  {Boolean} [bool] modify passed array
- * @return {Array}   shuffled Array
+ * @param  {Array} array array to shuffle.
+ * @param  {Boolean} [bool] if `true`, shuffle the original array in place. Defaults to `false`.
+ * @return {Array} shuffled array.
+ *
  * @example
- * <div><code>
+ * <div>
+ * <code>
+ * function setup() {
+ *   createCanvas(100, 100);
+ *
+ *   background(200);
+ *
+ *   // Create an array of colors.
+ *   let colors = ['red', 'orange', 'yellow', 'green', 'blue', 'indigo', 'violet'];
+ *
+ *   // Create a shuffled copy of the array.
+ *   let shuffledColors = shuffle(colors);
+ *
+ *   // Draw  a row of circles using the original array.
+ *   for (let i = 0; i < colors.length; i += 1) {
+ *     // Calculate the x-coordinate.
+ *     let x = (i + 1) * 12.5;
+ *
+ *     // Style the circle.
+ *     let c = colors[i];
+ *     fill(c);
+ *
+ *     // Draw the circle.
+ *     circle(x, 33, 10);
+ *   }
+ *
+ *   // Draw  a row of circles using the original array.
+ *   for (let i = 0; i < shuffledColors.length; i += 1) {
+ *     // Calculate the x-coordinate.
+ *     let x = (i + 1) * 12.5;
+ *
+ *     // Style the circle.
+ *     let c = shuffledColors[i];
+ *     fill(c);
+ *
+ *     // Draw the circle.
+ *     circle(x, 67, 10);
