How do I generate a random integer in C#?
This is the class I use. Works like RandomNumber.GenerateRandom(1, 666)
internal static class RandomNumber
{
private static Random r = new Random();
private static object l = new object();
private static Random globalRandom = new Random();
[ThreadStatic]
private static Random localRandom;
public static int GenerateNewRandom(int min, int max)
{
return new Random().Next(min, max);
}
public static int GenerateLockedRandom(int min, int max)
{
int result;
lock (RandomNumber.l)
{
result = RandomNumber.r.Next(min, max);
}
return result;
}
public static int GenerateRandom(int min, int max)
{
Random random = RandomNumber.localRandom;
if (random == null)
{
int seed;
lock (RandomNumber.globalRandom)
{
seed = RandomNumber.globalRandom.Next();
}
random = (RandomNumber.localRandom = new Random(seed));
}
return random.Next(min, max);
}
}
