Random 2

The document explains how to generate random numbers using the Math.random() method in Java, which returns a double value between 0.0 and less than 1.0. It provides examples of generating random numbers within specific ranges, such as between 0-99 and 10-20, as well as creating a random password. Additionally, it outlines the requirements for a guessing game program that allows users to guess a randomly generated number between 1 and 10 with a maximum of three attempts.

random()
OBJECTIVE

 Learn how to generate random numbers.


Math.random()

 This method returns a double value between 0.0 to less


than 1.0.
 Syntax: doubleVariable = Math.random()

Example:
double randNum = Math.random();
//randNum can be any value between 0.0 to 0.99…
Random numbers between 0 - 1
double rand; Possible
output:
String randStr; 0.825
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { 0.172
rand = Math.random(); 0.437
randStr = String.format(“%.3f", 0.212
0.673
rand); 0.408
System.out.println(randStr); 0.650
} 0.898
0.424
Generate number from 0 – any value

int num = (int) (Math.random() * 100);

The code above generate number from 0 - 99


Generate number from minimum to maximum number

int min = 10;


int max = 20;
int num = (int) (Math.random() * (max – min + 1)
) + min;

The code above generate number from 10 – 20


Random numbers between 1 - 6
double rand; Possible
output:
int dice; 1
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { 4
rand = Math.random(); 2
dice = (int)(1 + (rand * 6)); 3
3
System.out.println(dice); 6
} 6

Generate password
double rand;
int arrayIndex = 0;
String alphanumeric = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
String password= "";
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
rand = Math.random();
arrayIndex = (int)(rand * alphanumeric.length());
password += alphanumeric.charAt(arrayIndex);
}
System.out.println("Password: " + password);

Possible output:
Password: 9mvcfgy5
Direction: Make a guessing game program that
Lastname_3rd_Activity3 will generate a random number and ask the user to
guess the generated value with at most three (3)
attempts.
The system should have the corresponding
features:
1. Generate a random value between 1 to 10.
2. Display an error message when submitting
empty value.
3. Give the user at most 3 attempts to input a
value between 1 to 10.
4. Display “Higher” or “Lower” depending on the
user’s input compared to the generated value.
5. Display “Sorry, 3 attempts already.” after 3
incorrect attempts and “Congratulations! You
got it in N attempt/s”, if correct
6. Reset the game when game is over (win or
lose). Generate new random number then reset
attempt.
