const { floor, random } = Math;

// ⭐ Array extension
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// 🔸 .isEmpty
// 🔸 .randomElement         - random element
// 🔹 .removeDuplicates()    - remove duplicate element (new copy)
// 🔹 .union()               - union with unique elements
// 🔹 .maxIn()               - max quantity in array
