The utils module provides utility helper methods.

This module is available via the following require() statement:

Use the randomInt() method to generate a number between the given minimum and maximum values.

Usage: randomInt(min, max) where:

  • min: lower integer limit (inclusive)
  • max: upper integer limit (exclusive)
const randomNumber = utils.randomInt(5, 15);

isNumeric

Use the isNumeric() method to check if a variable is a number.

Usage: isNumeric(variable) where:

  • variable: value to test
console.log(utils.isNumeric(5)); // true
console.log(utils.isNumeric('five')); // false
