how to use the sample function from the lodash library in typescript

To use the sample function from the lodash library in TypeScript, you first need to import it from the library:

index.ts
import { sample } from 'lodash';

2 lines

Then, you can use the sample function to get a random element from an array. Here's an example:

index.ts
const myArray = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'durian'];
const randomItem = sample(myArray);
console.log(randomItem); // Output: 'cherry' (or any other random item from the array)
180 chars
4 lines

In this example, we create an array of fruits and then use the sample function to get a random fruit from the array. The randomItem variable will contain the randomly selected fruit, which we then log to the console.

Note that the sample function can be used with any array, regardless of the data type of the array elements.
