var userChoice = prompt(“how are you feeling today on a scale from 1 to 10?”);
if (userChoice == 1) {
console.log (“line1”);
console.log (“line2”);
console.log (“line3”);
}
if the user inputs 1 how can i make the console log print 1 of the 3 lines randomly?
could some plz give me an example of how you would code this?
We could start with a preset random number 0, 1, or 2.
var choice = Math.floor(Math.random() * 3)
if (...) {
console.log(['line1', 'line2', 'line3'][choice])
}
how would i input this in my code?
Show us what you have and we can sort this out.

}
else if(computerChoice >= 0.34 && 0.66){

hope you will cheer up soon!”;

Start with this line,
var computerChoice = Math.floor(Math.random() * 3)
You only need to run this line once.
Since there are so many cases, a switch might be easier to organize:
var function cheer(user, computer) {
switch (user) {
case 1: return [
"Aw, that sucks! Hope you feel better soon.",
"That's not nice to hear. Hope you will cheer up soon!",
"That's awful! Hope you have a nice day anyway!"
][computer];
case 2: return [
][computer];
case 3: return [
][computer];
case 4: return [
][computer];
case 5: return [
][computer];
case 6: return [
][computer];
case 7: return [
][computer];
case 8: return [
][computer];
case 9: return [
][computer];
case 10: return [
][computer];
default: return "The input is not in range."
}
};
console.log(cheer(userChoice, computerChoice));
Add three strings to each of the remaining case arrays and fix up the grammar for a more professional finish and you’re done.
thank you all for your help! i worked it out and it works!
really nice and helpful comunity here !
