macOS Applescript choosing

[don't do it]

Ok i know ive seen it before but i cant seem to find it know. im trying to write a script where the computer has to choose a response from a list and i dont want it to prompt me asking what i want it to say.

Do you mean something like this?

set responseList to {"Hi", "Hello", "What's up", "Howdy", "Greetings"}
set randomNumber to (random number from 1 to (count responseList))

say (item randomNumber of responseList)

Yes thank you very much for the script.
