Suppose I broadcast a game show where every episode there is 5 randomly chosen topics from 8 possible topics (A,B,C….). how can I get maple to do this automatically?

 I thought I could use

  > with(combinat):

> choose([A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H], 5);

of course the output comes out ordered. is there some way to randomize it? or another way? rgds
