randMyth

Creatures and figures out of myth and folklore.

randWord with theme fixed to 'myth'WordTheme.myth"myth"; every other option is the same one, and means the same thing.

javascript
import { randMyth } from 'randino';

randMyth({ language: 'en', count: 3 }); // ['Dragon', 'Phoenix', 'Griffin']
randMyth({ language: 'en', output: 'detail' });
// [{ word: 'Dragon', language: 'en', theme: 'myth' }]
dart
import 'package:randino/randino.dart';

randMyth(language: WordLanguage.en, count: 3); // [Dragon, Phoenix, Griffin]

Returns List<String>. For the detail form, pass WordTheme.myth to randWordDetails. Dart has no overloads, and a detail twin for each of the twenty-nine themes would be twenty-nine functions too many.

python
from randino import rand_myth

rand_myth(language="en", count=3)  # ['Dragon', 'Phoenix', 'Griffin']
rand_myth(language="en", output="detail")
# [WordDetail(word='Dragon', language='en', theme='myth')]
