## Overview
In Swift, the **`randomElement()` method** is used to get a random character from a string. However, if the string is empty, the method returns `nil`.

## Syntax
```swift
string.randomElement()
```
## Parameters
This method takes no parameters.
## Return Value
It returns a random character from the `string`.
## Example


// create string values
let name = "Theodore"
let language = "Swift"
let role = "Software Developer"

// get random characters from 
// strings and print results
print(name.randomElement()!)
print(language.randomElement()!)
print(role.randomElement()!);

## Explanation
* **Lines 2–4**: We create the string's `name`, `language`, and `role`.
* **Lines 8–10**: We use the `randomElement()` method to get random characters from the strings. Next, we print the values to the console.
