Generate Random Integer Between Two Values in Scala

Hi,

Here is code example:

import scala.util.Random
val randomGenerator = new Random
val start = 20
val end = 70
val genValue = start + randomGenerator.nextInt( (end - start) + 1 )

The scala.util.Random class is used for generating random number.

If you run the code it will give following output:

scala> import scala.util.Random
import scala.util.Random

scala> val randomGenerator = new Random
randomGenerator: scala.util.Random = scala.util.Random@4b23c30a

scala> val start = 20
start: Int = 20

scala> val end = 70
end: Int = 70

scala> val genValue = start + randomGenerator.nextInt( (end - start) + 1 )
genValue: Int = 62

scala>

Thanks
