Java random number generator question - please help

[jasonwyz98]

Hello

I need to generate some random #s within certain range using java.utils.Random

ex. generate random #s with 500-1000

when i do random(object).nextInt(1000) it generates all #s between 0-1000.

So how do i generate #s between 500-1000 only.

thanks

Divide it by two and add 500.

Cheers.

How about

random(object).nextInt(500)+500;

?
