JavaScript expression to generate a 5-digit number in every case
for my selenium tests I need an value provider to get a 5-digit number in every case. The problem with javascript is that the api of Math.random
only supports the generation of an 0.
starting float. So it has to be between 10000
and 99999
.
So it would be easy if it would only generates 0.10000
and higher, but it also generates 0.01000
. So this approach doesn't succeed:
Math.floor(Math.random()*100000+1)
Is it possible to generate a 5-digit number in every case (in an expression!) ?
What about:
Math.floor(Math.random()*90000) + 10000;
Yes, you can create random numbers in any given range:
var min = 10000;
var max = 99999;
var num = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
Or simplified:
var num = Math.floor(Math.random() * 90000) + 10000;
