// This example shows the generation of a multilevel object and JSON document using various faker.js features
// including name, address, company, date and commerce namespaces, moustache expressions and random element production
// Using the helper function arr, randomly sized collections of elements are produced in the document.

var faker = require('../../index');
var fs = require('fs');
// produce array with random number of empty elements 
const arr = (maxNumberOfElements) => new Array(faker.datatype.number({min: 1, max: maxNumberOfElements})).fill()
