how to display image randomly inside for loop in php

Question

i have a simple webpage where i am trying to echo multiple images, my code is like below

 <?php for($l=1;$l<=45;$l++){?> <div class="thumb" style="background-image: url(l<?=$l?>.jpg);"></div> <?php }?>

so here the images are displayed fine in an order from 1 to 45, but what i want is images to display randomly everytime the page is loaded, can anyone please tell me how to accomplish this, thanks in advance

As mentioned in the comments, just create an array and shuffle it.

$images = [];
for ($l = 1; $l <= 45; $l++) {
    $images[] = "<div class='thumb' style='background-image: url(l{$l}.jpg);'></div>";
}
shuffle($images);
echo implode("\n", $images);
