javascript random number between 1 and 5 code example

Example 1: random int between two numbers javascript

// Between any two numbers
Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;

// Between 0 and max
Math.floor(Math.random() * (max + 1));

// Between 1 and max
Math.floor(Math.random() * max) + 1;

Example 2: javascript random number between 1 and 10

// Genereates a number between 0 to 1;
Math.random();

// to gerate a randome rounded number between 1 to 10;
var theRandomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 1;

Example 3: js random number

var random;
var max = 8
function findRandom() {
  random = Math.floor(Math.random() * max) //Finds number between 0 - max
  console.log(random)
}
findRandom()

Example 4: javascript get random number in range

function getRandomNumberBetween(min,max){
    return Math.floor(Math.random()*(max-min+1)+min);
}

//usage example: getRandomNumberBetween(20,400);

Example 5: random number javascript

/* 
   The Math.random() function returns a floating-point, pseudo-random
   number in the range 0 to less than 1 (inclusive of 0, but not 1)
   with approximately uniform distribution over that range — which you
   can then scale to your desired range. The implementation selects the
   initial seed to the random number generation algorithm; it cannot
   be chosen or reset by the user.
*/
function getRandomInt(max) {
   return Math.floor(Math.random() * Math.floor(max));
}

console.log(getRandomInt(3));
// expected output: 0, 1 or 2

console.log(getRandomInt(1));
// expected output: 0

console.log(Math.random());
// expected output: a number from 0 to <1

Example 6: javascript random number between

Math.floor(Math.random() * 6) + 1
