Return GridSearch suggestions in random order. #101

Open peterjsadowski opened 4 years ago

peterjsadowski commented 4 years ago

This simple update provides an option to randomize the order of the suggestions from GridSearch, and makes this the default behavior. That is, the same finite set of suggestions are returned, just in a randomized order. This is usually preferable to a simple iteration over the parameter space because the intermediate results will have more variety.
