How to get a Random Object using Linq

Question

I am trying to get a random object within linq. Here is how I did.

//get all the answers
var Answers = q.Skip(1).Take(int.MaxValue);
//get the random number         


        

Answer 1

I'm posting an answer because I don't have enough reputation to comment.

I like this answer:

SelectedPost = q.ElementAt(r.Next(1, Answers.Count()));

But ElementAt is zero based, surely starting at 1 and going to Answers.Count() you are going to end up potentially throwing an out of range, and you are never going to get the first entity.

Wouldn't

SelectedPost = q.ElementAt(r.Next(0, Answers.Count() - 1));

Be better?
