Javascript for I Love Ham -Part 3
// this function will grab a random user from
// the tweets array.
functiongetRandom() {
var l = tweets.length; // grab length of tweet array
var ran = Math.floor(Math.random()*l); // grab random user
return tweets[ran];
}
functionbuildQuiz() {
var h = '';
for(i=0;i<choice.length;i++){
h += '<li>';
h += ' <blockquote>' + choice[i] + '</blockquote>';
h += '</li>';
}
// write buttons to the page
$('ul').html(h);
}
$(function(){
// run the init() function and start the application
init();
// check for correct user on user selection
$('ul li').live('click', function() {
var id = $(this).index();
