How to get mysql random integer range?

Question

I am trying to generate a random integer for each row I select between 1 and 60 as timer.

SELECT downloads.date, products.*, (FLOOR(1 + RAND() * 60)) AS time         


        

Answer 1

The output of the RAND function will always be a value between 0 and 1.

Try this:

SELECT downloads.date, products.*, (CAST(RAND() * 60 AS UNSIGNED) + 1) AS timer
