### sample
Returns a random element from an array.
Use `Math.random()` to generate a random number, multiply it by `length` and round it of 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
```
