Question

I want to select four random images from a folder which contains a number of images.

What i want to display is a table (2×2) where i can display 4 random distinct images.

Can someone tell me how can i select random distinct files from a folder so that i can store their path in a variable and then can use these variables to display images randomly in the table!

Is there any particular function which can select random files from a folder or something like that?

Answer 1

1. Use glob() to get all files from directory.
2. Use array_rand() to get random entries from an array.
