Gets a random element from an array.
|
||||
|
||||
- Use `Math.random()` to generate a random number.
|
||||
- Multiply it by `Array.prototype.length` and round it off to the nearest whole number using `Math.floor()`.
|
||||
- This method also works with strings.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const sample = arr => arr[Math.floor(Math.random() * arr.length)];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
sample([3, 7, 9, 11]); // 9
|
||||
```
