RandomInteger

Random generator for integer values.

Description

The RandomInteger class allows you to generate random integer values.

Static methods

nextInteger

Generates an integer in the range [‘min’, ‘max’]. If ‘max’ is omitted, then the range will be set to [0, ‘min’].

public static nextInteger(min: number, max: number = null): number

  • min: number - minimum value of the integer that will be generated. If ‘max’ is omitted, then ‘max’ is set to ‘min’ and ‘min’ is set to 0.
  • max: number - (optional) maximum value of the float that will be generated. Defaults to ‘min’ if omitted.
  • returns: number - generated random integer value.

updateInteger

Updates (drifts) a integer value within specified range.

public static updateInteger(value: number, range: number = null): number

  • value: number - integer value to drift.
  • range: number - (optional) range. Default: 10% of the value
  • returns: number - updated integer value.

Examples

let value1 = RandomInteger.nextInteger(5, 10);     // Possible result: 7
let value2 = RandomInteger.nextInteger(10);        // Possible result: 3
let value3 = RandomInteger.updateInteger(10, 3);   // Possible result: 9
