如何在Bash中生成一个范围内的随机数?


当前回答

程序的随机分支或是/否;1/0;真/假输出:

if [ $RANDOM -gt 16383  ]; then              # 16383 = 32767/2 
    echo var=true/1/yes/go_hither
else 
    echo var=false/0/no/go_thither
fi

如果你懒得记16383年

if (( RANDOM % 2 )); then 
    echo "yes"
else 
    echo "no"
fi

这是我写的一个函数,它将输出一个期望范围>的随机数

描述:

随机<min> <max> 生成一个从最小到最大的随机数。最小值和最大值都可以 正数或负数,生成的随机数也可以是负数,所以 只要范围(max - min + 1)小于或等于32767。Max必须是>= min。

它的核心是:

random() {
    min="$1"
    max="$2"
    
    range=$((max - min + 1))
    rand=$((min + (RANDOM % range)))
    echo "$rand"
}

用法:

# general form: obtain a random number between min and max, inclusive
random <min> <max>

# Example: obtain a random number from -10 to 10, inclusive
random -10 10

这是从bash内置变量RANDOM中工作的,它可能只在底层使用C rand(),因为它们的最大值都是32767——请参阅:

https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/numeric/random/rand https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/numeric/random/RAND_MAX

有关bash文档,请参阅man bash:

随机 每次引用此参数时,都会生成一个0到32767之间的随机整数。随机数序列可以通过赋值给random来初始化。如果RANDOM未被设置,它将失去其特殊属性,即使随后被重置。

健壮的、可运行的、可源代码的脚本版本

这是上面随机函数的一个更健壮的版本。它包括完整的错误检查,边界检查,通过random——help或random -h提供的帮助菜单,以及一个特殊的run_check功能,允许您源或运行此脚本,以便您可以源它以将随机函数导入任何其他脚本——就像您在Python中所做的一样!

HELP_STR="\
Generate a random integer number according to the usage styles below.

USAGE STYLES:
    'random'
        Generate a random number from 0 to 32767, inclusive (same as bash variable 'RANDOM').
    'random <max>'
        Generate a random number from 0 to 'max', inclusive.
    'random <min> <max>'
        Generate a random number from 'min' to 'max', inclusive. Both 'min' and 'max' can be
        positive OR negative numbers, and the generated random number can be negative too, so
        long as the range (max - min + 1) is less than or equal to 32767. Max must be >= min.

我就此写了几篇文章。

$ RANDOM=$(date +%s%N | cut -b10-19)
$ echo $(( $RANDOM % 113 + 13 ))

上述将给出一个介于13到125(113-1+13)之间的数字,具有合理的随机熵。

也许我说得有点晚了,但是在Bash中使用jot生成一个范围内的随机数怎么样?

jot -r -p 3 1 0 1

这将生成一个随机的(-r)数字,具有3位小数点后精度(-p)。在本例中,您将得到0到1(1 0 1)之间的一个数字。您还可以打印顺序数据。根据手册,随机数的来源为:

当没有指定种子时,通过arc4random(3)获得随机数,通过 随机(3)当一个种子给出。
