Script Preparation code:

    body += (Math.random () > 0.5) ? "*" : "+";
            
    body += Math.floor (1 + Math.random () * 100);

Tests:

array
let result = Math.floor (Math.random () * 100); for (let i = funs.length - 1 ; i >= 0 ; i--) result = funs[i] (result);
compose
let result = Math.floor (Math.random () * 100); result = funComposed (result);
merge
let result = Math.floor (Math.random () * 100); result = funMerged (result);
