What it does

Chance is a minimalist generator of random [1] strings, numbers, etc. to help reduce some monotony particularly while writing automated tests or anywhere else you need anything random. Chance is loaded on this site so you can just open the console on your browser and play! Or move on to the Usage section for many other ways to get and use Chance. Thank you to Sean McCullough for your Mersenne Twister gist on which almost the entirety of this library is dependent. And to Takuji Nishimura and Makoto Matsumoto who wrote the original C version on which Sean's JavaScript gist is based. And of course a monster thank you to all of the Contributors to this project! © 2013 Victor Quinn Chance…from chancejs.com
