javascript select random from array without repetition code example

Example 1: function that takes any question and returns a randomly selected item from an array

function randomNoRepeats(array) {
  var copy = array.slice(0);
  return function() {
    if (copy.length < 1) { copy = array.slice(0); }
    var index = Math.floor(Math.random() * copy.length);
    var item = copy[index];
    copy.splice(index, 1);
    return item;
  };
}

var chooser = randomNoRepeats(['Foo', 'Bar', 'Gah']);
chooser(); // => "Bar"
chooser(); // => "Foo"
chooser(); // => "Gah"
chooser(); // => "Foo" -- only repeats once all items are exhausted.

Example 2: function that takes any question and returns a randomly selected item from an array

var a = ["Roger", "Russell", "Clyde", "Egbert", "Clare", "Bobbie", "Simon", "Elizabeth", "Ted", "Caroline"];

var chooseName = function () {
    var unique = true;
    num = Math.floor(Math.random() * a.length - 5);
    name = a.splice(num,1);
    a.push(name);
}


window.addEventListener("keypress", function (e) {
    var keycode = e.keyCode;
    if (keycode == 13) {
        chooseName();
    }
}, false);
