apply limit to random

[Peter Knight]

Someone suggested that an easy way to output a random image from a field was to use getRandom and then simply use limit=1

I'm not sure where I apply it to the following

<?php
$randomitem = $pages->get(1034)->images->getRandom();
foreach($randomitem as $item) {
echo "
<img src='{$item->url}' class='squares'>

";} 

?>

Does it go at the start where I define my variable or somewhere in the echo statment?

Thanks

If one item is requested (default), the item is returned (unless $alwaysArray argument is true).

If multiple items are requested, a new WireArray of those items is returned.

// Get a single random item
$randomItem = $items->getRandom();

Got it. Thanks @dragan too
