random number from 1 to 5 javascript 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: Math.random() javascript

//Returns a number between 1 and 0
  console.log(Math.random());
  
//if you want a random number between two particular numbers, 
//you can use this function
  function getRandomBetween(min, max) {
    return Math.random() * (max - min) + min;
  }
//Returns a random number between 20 and 170
  console.log(getRandomBetween(20,170));
  
//if you want a random integer number from one number to another 
//(including the min and the max numbers), you can use this function
  function getRandomIntBetween(min, max) {
    min = Math.ceil(min);
    max = Math.floor(max);
    return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
  }
  
//Returns a random integer number from 0 to 25
  console.log(getRandomIntInclusive(0,25));
