How to create a list of 1000 random numbers in Erlang?

Question

I\'m sure that there is a function for that. I just want to make a list of 1000 numbers, each one of them which should be random.

From Erlang Central wiki:

http://erlangcentral.org/wiki/index.php?title=Random_Numbers

Where N = no of items, StartVal = minimum value and Lim = maximum value

generate_random_int_list(N,StartVal,Lim) ->
    lists:map(fun (_) -> random:uniform(Lim-StartVal) + StartVal end, lists:seq(1,N)).
