wise-helper v2.4.3

Wise-helper

Usefull functions like getting a random number, printing, and more using simple syntax

• Math.floor(Math.random())-> random(MAX)
• console.log("string") -> print("string")
• random(255) -> Random number between 0-255
• randString(6) -> Random String w/ length 6

install

npm install --save wise-helper

at top of your project file

require('wise-helper');

//ready to go!

Useage

inside of your 'app.js'

require('wise-helper');

d = randInt( -100, 100 ); // int -100 - 100

//or print like this

print( random(255) );
