Random Number Generator
Generate random numbers instantly. Set your range and get a random integer.
Random Number Generator
Set your minimum and maximum, then generate a random number.
How it works:
Random integer = Math.floor(Math.random() × (max - min + 1)) + min
About Random Numbers
What is a Random Number Generator?
A Random Number Generator (RNG) is a tool that produces a number chosen at random from a specified range. It is essential for games, statistics, simulations, and decision making.
This calculator uses JavaScript’s Math.random() to generate a pseudo-random integer between your chosen minimum and maximum values (inclusive).
Why Use a Random Number Generator?
Random numbers are vital for:
- Games and contests
- Random sampling in statistics
- Simulations and modeling
- Decision making
- Programming and testing
- Classroom activities
- Giveaways and lotteries
How Does the Generator Work?
- Enter your minimum and maximum values.
- Click Generate to get a random integer in that range.
The tool provides instant results and can be used as many times as you like.
