Functions

1. random.shuffle(array: T[])

   const shuffledArray = random.shuffle(array)

• Accepts array: T[]
• Returns shuffled array
• Does not modify original array

2. random.index(arrayLength: number)

const randomIndex = random.index(array.length)

• Accepts arrayLength: number
• Returns random index given array length

3. random.choice(array: T[])

const randomChoice = random.choice(array)

• Accepts array: T[]
• Returns random element from array

4. random.int(min: number, max: number)

const randomInt = random.int(min, max)

• Accepts min: number and max: number
• Returns random integer min, max (includes both min and max)
• Throws error if min > max

5. random.float(min: number, max: number)

const randomFloat = random.float(min, max)

• Accepts min: number and max: number
• Returns random float [min, max) (includes min and excludes max)
• Throws error if min > max

6. random.bool()

const randomBool = random.bool()

• Accepts nothing
• Returns random boolean value (true or false)

7. random.zScore()

const randomZScore = random.zScore()

• Accepts nothing
• Returns random z-score given a normal distribution, a mean of 0, and SD of 1

8. random.percentile()

const randomPercentile = random.percentile()

• Accepts nothing
• Returns random percentile with a normal distribution (0, 1)

9. random.valueInDistribution(mean: number, stdDeviation: number)

const randomValue = random.valueInDistribution(mean, stdDeviation)

• Accepts mean: number and stdDeviation: number
• Returns random float from the normal distribution
