how to make random statement

Question

I want to make program like sometimes it alert good morning and sometimes good night. Can it happen

Answer 1

I am new to Javascript a bit, I'm used to C++ so sorry if messed up.

What you can do, is make a if statement where it asks for the AM or PM

Idk how to get user input for Javascript, but this is the way it would be with C++ if it helps you
I made it so it's easy to copy and paste, but it's untested Paste this after the first function (after int Main() and in the brackets)

int answer1
cout >> "Please enter AM or PM"
cin << answer1;

if (answer1==am){"It is am"
}
if (answer1==pm){"It is pm"
}
else() {"This is a unvalid"
}

Answer 2

Hi. You need to learn more about the "Math.random()" function.
Try this sample code:

function getRandomGreeting() {
if (Math.random()>0.5) {
return "Good Morning!";
}
else {
return "Good Night!";
}
}
alert(getRandomGreeting());

Answer 3

Thanks I found it helpful but want to ask why you take 0.5

Answer 4

>>why you take 0.5
It is because of "Math.random()" returns values between 0 and 1 (1 is not including, so the range will be [0-0,99999(9)].
I took 0,5 as a half to get two different states. Half of the results will be below 0,5 and other half - above 0,5.
Actually, you can multiply the result of Math.random() to any needed number, round the value and then use switch statement.
