Java Generate Random Number Between Two Given Values [duplicate]
I would like to know how to generate a random number between two given values.
I am able to generate a random number with the following:
Random r = new Random();
for(int i = 0; i < a.length; i++){
for(int j = 0; j < a[i].length; j++){
a[i][j] = r.nextInt();
}
}
However, how can I generate a random number between 0 and 100 (inclusive)?
Solution 1:
You could use e.g. r.nextInt(101)
For a more generic "in between two numbers" use:
Random r = new Random();
int low = 10;
int high = 100;
int result = r.nextInt(high-low) + low;
This gives you a random number in between 10 (inclusive) and 100 (exclusive)
Solution 2:
Assuming the upper is the upper bound and lower is the lower bound, then you can make a random number, r, between the two bounds with:
int r = (int) (Math.random() * (upper - lower)) + lower;
Solution 3:
int Random = (int)(Math.random()*100);
if You need to generate more than one value, then just use for loop for that
for (int i = 1; i <= 10 ; i++)
{
int Random = (int)(Math.random()*100);
System.out.println(Random);
}
If You want to specify a more decent range, like from 10 to 100 ( both are in the range )
so the code would be :
int Random =10 + (int)(Math.random()*(91));
/* int Random = (min.value ) + (int)(Math.random()* ( Max - Min + 1));
*Where min is the smallest value You want to be the smallest number possible to
generate and Max is the biggest possible number to generate*/
Solution 4:
Like this,
Random random = new Random();
int randomNumber = random.nextInt(upperBound - lowerBound) + lowerBound;
Solution 5:
Use Random.nextInt(int).
In your case it would look something like this:
a[i][j] = r.nextInt(101);
