Next(Int32)

Gets a non-negative random integer that is less than the specified maxValue.

Declaration
int Next(int maxValue)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Int32 maxValue

The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. It must be greater than or equal to 0.
Returns
Type Description
Int32

A 32-bit signed integer that is greater than or equal to 0 and less than maxValue; that is, the range of return values ordinarily includes 0 but not maxValue. However, if maxValue equals to 0, maxValue is returned.
Exceptions
Type Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException

Next(Int32, Int32)

Gets a random integer that is within a specified range.

Declaration
int Next(int minValue, int maxValue)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Int32 minValue

The inclusive lower bound of the random number to be generated.
Int32 maxValue

The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. It must be greater than or equal to minValue.
Returns
Type Description
Int32

A 32-bit signed integer that is greater than or equal to minValue and less than maxValue; that is, the range of return values ordinarily includes minValue but not maxValue. If maxValue equals to minValue, minValue is returned.
Exceptions
Type Condition
