Title: Apply 'random' to an array

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2015-12-22)
  
  How do I output one random line of an array?
  
  ```
  {% set img = [
    { bildli: 'http://i.giphy.com/I0xDz0htjsiME.gif' },
    { bildli: 'https://i.giphy.com/fA3JALhIi5YVa.gif' }
   ] %}
   {% for item in img %}
     <img src="{{ item.bildli }}" alt="">
   {% endfor %}
  
  ```
  
  I tried `{% for item in img.limit(1).order('RAND()') %}` like you would on a normal `entries.section` but that doesn't work on array.
  
  I also tried: `{% for item in random(img) %}` as statet in the twig doc but that doesn't work eyther. What's the catch here?

  Take a look at the `shuffle` function provided by Craft: <https://craftcms.com/docs/templating/functions#shuffle>
  
  This will shuffle the complete array and output them all in the new order:
  
  ```
  {% set img = [
      { bildli: 'http://i.giphy.com/I0xDz0htjsiME.gif' },
      { bildli: 'https://i.giphy.com/fA3JALhIi5YVa.gif' }
  ] %}
  
  {% set shuffledImages = shuffle(img) %}
  
  {% for item in shuffledImages %}
      <img src="{{ item.bildli }}" alt="">
  {% endfor %}
  
  ```
  
  If you want to just output one random image, then this should work:
  
  ```
  {% set img = [
      { bildli: 'http://i.giphy.com/I0xDz0htjsiME.gif' },
      { bildli: 'https://i.giphy.com/fA3JALhIi5YVa.gif' }
  ] %}
  
  {% set randomImage = shuffle(img) | first %}
  
  <img src="{{ randomImage.bildli }}" alt="">
  
  ```
