##### Namespace
BarbezDotEu.Generic
##### Summary
Generic helper extension method adapted for Linq
from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2019417/how-to-access-random-item-in-list,
http://www.albahari.com/nutshell/predicatebuilder.aspxamongst, and others.
### GenerateRandomList\`\`1(source,numberOfItems) `method`
##### Summary
Generates n number of items randomly from a given [IEnumerable\`1](http://msdn.microsoft.com/query/dev14.query?appId=Dev14IDEF1&l=EN-US&k=k:System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1') source,
even if the source list has less items than the number of items to return (as provided by the numberOfThings).
##### Returns
The random list.
##### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| ---- | ---- | ----------- |
| source | [System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable{\`\`0}](http://msdn.microsoft.com/query/dev14.query?appId=Dev14IDEF1&l=EN-US&k=k:System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable{``0}') | The source. |
| numberOfItems | [System.Int32](http://msdn.microsoft.com/query/dev14.query?appId=Dev14IDEF1&l=EN-US&k=k:System.Int32 'System.Int32') | The number of items to take. |
##### Generic Types
| Name | Description |
| ---- | ----------- |
| T | The type. |
### PickRandom\`\`1(source) `method`
##### Summary
From a given [IEnumerable\`1](http://msdn.microsoft.com/query/dev14.query?appId=Dev14IDEF1&l=EN-US&k=k:System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1'), selects a random single item.
##### Returns
One item, randomly chosen from the given collection.
##### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| ---- | ---- | ----------- |
| source | [System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable{\`\`0}](http://msdn.microsoft.com/query/dev14.query?appId=Dev14IDEF1&l=EN-US&k=k:System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable{``0}') | The source collection to pick one item out of. |
##### Generic Types

If n is larger than the number of items in the list, returns all items in the list only (which in this case is less than the number of items given to return).
##### Returns
The random list.
##### Parameters
