Is there any other way to generate a random number from a specific range other than this: 

Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1) + min);

    Why? Is this not good enough? – deceze Sep 14 '18 at 11:41
  • How is this not working for you? – Luca Kiebel Sep 14 '18 at 11:41

    I suspect there's some library somewhere which provides this - but since you can get it correct with just 1 line of code, why not put that in a function of your own if you need to use it a lot? – Robin Zigmond Sep 14 '18 at 11:41

  • I'm sure you can but none will be as efficient as this one line you have here. – Thijs Sep 14 '18 at 11:42
  • Yes. `Math.random() * (max - min) + min` is other than that. – Akaino Sep 14 '18 at 11:42
  • @deceze it is good, i am still a beginner and just practicing and wanted to think of another way – user52068 Sep 14 '18 at 11:44

  • Well, what you need is a good source of randomness, which is actually a harder problem than you might think. The standard API that Javascript exposes to get a good random number is `Math.random`. So that's all you got to work with, and if you want to extrapolate that to a specific range, this is how you do it. – deceze Sep 14 '18 at 11:45
  • Thank you all... – user52068 Sep 14 '18 at 11:52

Try this Example 

var min = 1;
var max = 100;

Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
