+#### Generating a random number with `Enum.rand/1` and `:random.unform/1` [code](code/general/enum_random_vs_rand_uniform.exs)
+
+If you need to generate a random number, do not use `Enum.random/1` as it is 1.31x slower (on average). If you're using Elixir 1.8.2 it gets even slower: 2.46x.
+
+Save using `Enum.random/1` when you want to retrieve a random string from a list of strings, for example.
