random()
The random method returns a random item from the collection:
const collection = collect([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
collection.random();
//=> 4 (retrieved randomly)
You may optionally pass an integer to random to specify how many items you would like to randomly retrieve. A collection of items is always returned when explicitly passing the number of items you wish to receive:
const random = collection.random(3);
//=> Collection { items: [ 5, 3, 4 ] } (retrieved randomly)
const random = collection.random(1);
//=> Collection { items: [ 3 ] } (retrieved randomly)
random.all();
//=> [3]
