Chance - Random generator helper for JavaScript
Homepage: http://chancejs.com
Many more details on http://chancejs.com but this single library can generate random numbers, characters, strings, names, addresses, dice, and pretty much anything else.
It includes the basic building blocks for all these items and is built on top of a Mersenne Twister so it can generate these things with repeatability, if desired.
It can also be used with Bower
bower install chance
then in the HTML of your app:
<!-- Load Chance -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="app/bower_components/chance/chance.min.js"></script>
<script>
// Use Chance immediately!
alert(chance.string());
</script>It can also be used with Component
component install victorquinn/chancejs
then in the HTML of your app:
<!-- Load Chance -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="components/victorquinn-chancejs/chance.js"></script>
<script>
// Use Chance immediately!
alert(chance.string());
</script>
### npm
```shell
npm install chanceIt can also be used with spm.
spm install chance
Chance instantiates itself onto the window. This means that in the simplest case you can just include the script tag then use an instance of Chance immediately.
<script src="chance.js"></script>
<script>
console.log(chance.string());
</script>Chance CLI has moved to its own repository!
And it can be used in Node.js.
var Chance = require('chance'),
chance = new Chance();
// Get a random zip code
chance.zip();Chance also includes an AMD define so it can be used with RequireJS.
require(['Chance'], function(Chance) {
// Instantiate
var chance = new Chance();
// Then just use it:
var my_random_integer = chance.integer();
});Use chance generators to populate JSON Schema samples. See: https://github.com/pateketrueke/json-schema-faker/

Be a part of this project! You can run the test using the following.

npm install - Run the test via
npm test - Make some fun new modules!
Note: Formerly, there was a develop branch where active development would
happen, but now it's all on master baby. Just submit PRs directly to master.
Sorry if the develop branch going away caused any trouble, but it was time to
rip the bandaid off.
