如何在特定范围内生成随机int值?

以下方法存在与整数溢出相关的错误:

randomNum = minimum + (int)(Math.random() * maximum);
// Bug: `randomNum` can be bigger than `maximum`.
Random rn = new Random();
int n = maximum - minimum + 1;
int i = rn.nextInt() % n;
randomNum =  minimum + i;
// Bug: `randomNum` can be smaller than `minimum`.

如果您已经使用Commons Lang API 3.x或最新版本,那么有一个类用于随机数生成RandomUtils。

public static int nextInt(int startInclusive, int endExclusive)

返回指定范围内的随机整数。

参数:

startInclusive-指定的起始值

endExclusive-指定的结束值

int random = RandomUtils.nextInt(999,1000000);

注:在RandomUtils中,有许多生成随机数的方法

我发现这个例子生成随机数:


此示例生成特定范围内的随机整数。

import java.util.Random;

/** Generate random integers in a certain range. */
public final class RandomRange {

  public static final void main(String... aArgs){
    log("Generating random integers in the range 1..10.");

    int START = 1;
    int END = 10;
    Random random = new Random();
    for (int idx = 1; idx <= 10; ++idx){
      showRandomInteger(START, END, random);
    }

    log("Done.");
  }

  private static void showRandomInteger(int aStart, int aEnd, Random aRandom){
    if ( aStart > aEnd ) {
      throw new IllegalArgumentException("Start cannot exceed End.");
    }
    //get the range, casting to long to avoid overflow problems
    long range = (long)aEnd - (long)aStart + 1;
    // compute a fraction of the range, 0 <= frac < range
    long fraction = (long)(range * aRandom.nextDouble());
    int randomNumber =  (int)(fraction + aStart);    
    log("Generated : " + randomNumber);
  }

  private static void log(String aMessage){
    System.out.println(aMessage);
  }
} 

此类的示例运行:

Generating random integers in the range 1..10.
Generated : 9
Generated : 3
Generated : 3
Generated : 9
Generated : 4
Generated : 1
Generated : 3
Generated : 9
Generated : 10
Generated : 10
Done.
 rand.nextInt((max+1) - min) + min;

另一种选择是使用Apache Commons:

import org.apache.commons.math.random.RandomData;
import org.apache.commons.math.random.RandomDataImpl;

public void method() {
    RandomData randomData = new RandomDataImpl();
    int number = randomData.nextInt(5, 10);
    // ...
 }
public static void main(String[] args) {

    Random ran = new Random();

    int min, max;
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println("Enter min range:");
    min = sc.nextInt();
    System.out.println("Enter max range:");
    max = sc.nextInt();
    int num = ran.nextInt(min);
    int num1 = ran.nextInt(max);
    System.out.println("Random Number between given range is " + num1);

}

Java中的Math.Random类是基于0的。所以,如果你这样写:

Random rand = new Random();
int x = rand.nextInt(10);

x将介于0-9之间(含0-9)。

因此,给定以下25项的数组,生成0(数组的基数)和array.length之间的随机数的代码为:

String[] i = new String[25];
Random rand = new Random();
int index = 0;

index = rand.nextInt( i.length );

由于i.length将返回25,因此nextInt(i.length)将返回0-24之间的数字。另一个选项是Math.Random,其工作方式相同。

index = (int) Math.floor(Math.random() * i.length);
