Re: get random char from array

[bearophile]

SaltySugar:

My code:

In Phobos there isn't something like random.choice() of Python. 
This code doesn't work with truly Unicode strings (better to use 
a dstring or dchar[] for that, unless you want to walk the string 
every time you want to extract a random item):


import std.stdio, std.random;

void main() {
    immutable array = "abcdef";
    immutable rndChar = array[uniform(0, $)];
    writeln(rndChar);
}


Bye,
