Random Class in C#

January 10, 2022 C#

In this post, you will learn how to work with the Random class so that you can use that same knowledge and thus evolve.

this class represents a pseudorandom number generator and it produces a sequence of numbers that meet certain statistical requirements of randomness.

Random (object).Next() Returns a random number and, depending on your signature, is also able to return a random number within a specified range

using System;

namespace Base {
  class RandomClass {
    private Random random = new Random();

    public void Run() {
      Console.WriteLine($"Random number up to 20: {random.Next(21)}");
      Console.WriteLine($"Random number between 20 and 40: {random.Next(20, 41)}");

      for (int index = 1; index <= 10; index++)
        Console.WriteLine($"Random number #{index}: {random.Next()}");
    }
  }
}

/*
  Random number up to 20: 8
  Random number between 20 and 40: 39
  Random number #1: 1992885730
  Random number #2: 1283322657
  Random number #3: 226863787
  Random number #4: 710252620
  Random number #5: 1546596848
  Random number #6: 1967725250
  Random number #7: 1848910215
  Random number #8: 1504322913
  Random number #9: 1207920689
  Random number #10: 571352235
