Drawing Lots by JavaScript
If you pass an array and the number of winners, the function will draw lots.
function choose(array, num) {
const result = [];
while (result.length < num) {
const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * array.length);
const element = array[randomIndex];
// The condition below prevents the duplication.
if (!result.includes(element)) {
result.push(element);
}
}
return result;
}
const people = ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F'];
console.log(choose(people, 3)); // ['B', 'A', 'E']
