Custom RAND() function?

Question

PHP

We need to randomize the data. Did according to this documentation.

In the request I add:
->orderBy('RAND()');
Everything works correctly. The question itself: Should the data be shuffled again with each new update and differ from the previous result?

Answer 1

In this case, they will, because RAND() will return a random number each time it is called. Whether they should or not depends on the requirements. :)
