Random

This is a simple wrapper that provides utilities for dealing with randomness. This library generally uses Math.random as its random number generator. If you need a deterministic, mathematically correct random number generator, consider random-js instead. Noise uses simplex-noise and alea, and ids cuid.

1. npm install @huth/random

Default export contains all available methods:

import random from "@huth/random"
 
random.pick("Rose", "Blanche", "Dorothy", "Sophia") // "Dorothy" 😬

API

The API includes the following methods for producing usefull random data:

• float(min: number, max: number): number inclusive random float
• integer(min: number, max: number): number inclusive random integer
• boolean(likelihood = .5): boolean boolean where likelihood is a number in the range [0, 1] increasing the chance of true
• pick(...args): any returns a random element from the arguments provided
• noise(x, y?, z?): number simplex noise in the range [0, 1] (seeded with a fixed value)
• id(): string generates an id ala cjld2cjxh0000qzrmn831i7rn
