Tell us something random!

Let's have some fun! Whether it's a random fun fact, a personal goal, where you plan to go on vacation next, a piece of advice you picked up over the years, or even how many pets you have, we want to hear it! 🎉

It was at my "usual vacation spot" which I last visited this month and again will visit in November, I first learned the Zebra fun fact mentioned above... (specifically on Kilimanjaro Safaris at Disney's Animal Kingdom).

If you take any three dimensional solid with flat faces known as polyhedron- i.e. a cube, pyramid or a soccer ball - then add the number of faces to the number of vertices and then subtract the number of edges the answer will always be 2.

Siri says "A group of artists couldn't decide what to draw.  So they drew straws."

Borrowing someone else's code response, here's two similar lines excerpted from code i've written and maintain, in Kotlin:

val r = Random()
var Chosen = r.nextInt(size)

or in Swift:

            var Chosen=Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(size)))

This is from a random student picker as part of my app (android/iPad), in both cases things are done to ensure students are picked evenly (none more often than others).   In the case of Swift, I don't own an iPad and have not tested my code as much.
