how to use the random function from lodash in javascript

To use the random function from lodash in JavaScript, you must first install the lodash library in your project by running the following command in your terminal:

index.tsx
npm install lodash
19 chars
2 lines

Once installed, you can import the random function in your code like this:

index.tsx
const _ = require('lodash');

const randomNum = _.random(0, 10);
console.log(randomNum); // Outputs a random number between 0 and 10
133 chars
5 lines

The _.random() function takes two arguments: the minimum value and maximum value of the range of random numbers you want to generate. In the example above, we generate a random number between 0 and 10 (inclusive).

You can also use the _.random() function to generate random floating-point numbers by adding a third argument true:

index.tsx
const _ = require('lodash');

const randomFloat = _.random(0, 10, true);
console.log(randomFloat); // Outputs a random floating-point number between 0 and 10
158 chars
5 lines

This will generate a random floating-point number between 0 and 10 (inclusive).
