8 points
In this short article, we would like to show to randomize byte value using JavaScript.
Note: as byte value we understand signed 8 bits integer value (from
-128to127).
Quick solution:
xxxxxxxxxx1
const value = Math.floor(256 * Math.random()) - 128;
xxxxxxxxxx1
const randomByte = () => Math.floor(256 * Math.random() - 128);2

// Usage example:5

console.log(randomByte()); // 1067
console.log(randomByte()); // 78
console.log(randomByte()); // -82
