Random Array Generator

This package returns an array of integers of random length from 3 to max based on parameter. The array will be randomly filled in the range of default -30 < value < 500.

Purpose

This package can make creating a random array easy, and is useful for testing sort algorithms.

Installation

npm i mzs-randomarray

Usage

The function takes 3 parameters, all of them have default values: createRandomArray(maxNum, minV = -30, maxV = 500)

• max = the maximum length of the array, randomly generated.

• cb = arrValues and defaulted so only a single parameter is used.

• It is recommended that you set the output of this function into a variable, as shown below.

• const cRA = require('mzs-random-array')

  | | (n) max possible lenth | minV range | maxV range | | :------------- | :--------------------: | :--------: | :--------: | | cRA() | 10 | -30 | 500 | | cRA(20) | 20 | -30 | 500 | | cRA(20,0) | 20 | 0 | 500 | | cRA(10,0,25) | 10 | 0 | 25 | | cRA('bob') | 10 | -30 | 500 |

• const arrayToBeSorted = createRandomArray(12) ~ set random array to preserve the array for reference

Tests

Run node test.js will produce two tables, one testing non-inter input will default max=10, and second will use integer for max=20.
