You could do this using a table.
You can store all the functions you want into the table, index it with math.random, and call the function that is returned to you.
Example:
local function1()
...
end
local function2()
...
end
local functions = {function1, function2}
local index = math.random(1, #functions)
local randomFunction = functions[index]
randomFunction()
Note that this will error if #functions is less than 1. You could do a check with an if statement if necessary.
