how to randomize a matrix keeping the rows fixed in python

I’m trying to randomize all the rows of my DataFrame but with no success. What I want to do is from this matrix

A= [ 1 2 3
     4 5 6 
     7 8 9 ]

to this

A_random=[ 4 5 6 
           7 8 9 
           1 2 3 ]

I’ve tried with np. random.shuffle but it doesn’t work.

I’m working in Google Colaboratory environment.

If you want to make this work with np.random.shuffle, then one way would be to extract the rows into an ArrayLike structure, shuffle them in place and then recreate the DataFrame:

A = pandas.DataFrame([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]])
extracted_rows = A.values.tolist()  # Each row is an array element, so rows will remain fixed but their order shuffled
np.random.shuffle(extracted_rows)
A_random = pandas.DataFrame(extracted_rows)
