RandomElement Command

RandomElement[ <List> ]

Returns randomly chosen element from the list (with uniform probability). All elements in the list must be of the same type.

Example:

RandomElement[{3, 2, -4, 7}] yields one of {-4, 2, 3, 7}.

Hint: In the CAS View this command also works with symbolic input.

Example:

RandomElement[{a,b,c,d}] yields one of {a, b, c, d}.
