Function: random_select
DOC_MSE_VERSION: since 0.3.7
--Usage--
> random_select(some_list, count: some_number, replace: some_boolean)
Randomly select a number of items from a list.
If the @count@ parameter is not given, then a single item is picked at random.
Otherwise @count@ ''different'' items are selected (selection without replacment).
Setting the @replace@ parameter allows the same item to occur more than once in the result (selection with replacment).
Since the result is random, calling the function twice will give a different answer.
--Parameters--
! Parameter Type Description
| @input@ [[type:list]] List to shuffle.
| @count@ [[type:int]] Number of items to select.
| @replace@ [[type:boolean]] Select with replacement?
--Examples--
> random_select([1,2,3,4]) == 4
> random_select([1,2,3,4]) == 2
> random_select([1,2,3,4], count:3) == [2,3,1]
> random_select([1,2,3,4], count:3) == [3,1,4]
> random_select([1,2,3,4], count:3, replace: true) == [2,3,2]
> random_select([1,2,3,4], count:3, replace: true) == [1,3,4]
