findQuestionfunction
Makes the question: the target, count of the most tempting wrong answers for it (pickDistractors), and all of them
put in a random order. The same seed asks the same question. A map with fewer other places than count offers fewer
choices rather than failing.
Import it
import { findQuestion } from "@johnmorrisdotca/chizu";Definition
