The Random Class in Java Is A Part of The Java

The document discusses the Random class in Java, which generates random numbers of various data types. It imports the Random package, creates a Random object, and uses the object's nextInt() method to generate random integers. The code example demonstrates generating a random lottery number and comparing it to a preset number, displaying different messages if they match or not. It also shows adding random numbers to an array using a for loop and printing the array values using a foreach loop.

The random class in java is a part of the java.util package


That generate random numbers of int, long, float, double… etc type, it uses
an
algorithm based on seed value which is the starting point for the number
generating process.

Import java.util.Random; → to import the Random package


Random name = new Random(); → to create an object
int variableName = name.nextInt(); → to create a variable that
e takes the
random numbers eeee
from the object
Syntax:

Example with array:


Example with variable:
Scanner sc = new Scanner (System.in);
Random lottery = new Random();

int lotteryNum = 2310;


System.out.println("The lotter number is " + lotteryNum);

System.out.print("Click enter to generate your lottery number");


String click = sc.nextLine();

String result =""; Output example


The lottery number is 231
for(int c=0; c<4; c++){
Click enter to generate your lottery number
int yourLottery = lottery.nextInt(4); your lottery number is 301
result += yourLottery; } Sorry, you lost. Please try again

System.out.println("your lottery number is " + result);


Random number = new Random();
int arr[] = new int[6];
int resultInt = Integer.parseInt(result); Output example
if(resultInt == lotteryNum){ //what's the error? The numbers in this array are:
for(int c=0; c<arr.length; c++){
System.out.println("Congratulations, you won the5lottery!
0 ");4 0 5 1
arr[c]= number.nextInt(6); }
}else{
System.out.println("Sorry, you lost. Please try again"); }v
System.out.println("The numbers in this array are: " );
for (int p : arr) {
System.out.print(p
