random numbers without using java funtions

[carlos123]

i need a formula to generate 100 random numbers 1-20

any suggestions?

remember, no functions

thanks.

int n = (int)(1 + 20*Math.random());

we cannot use the Math.random function

this is some code it - Each number needs to be generated.
Each number should be generated at least 300 times of the 10,000.

Code:

public class Random_Gen
{
    int min;                     //minimum number that can be generated.
	int max;                    //maximum number that can be generated. 
    int value;

	public Random_Gen(int n, int m)
	{
        max = m;		//code goes in this class
	    min = n;
	   
	}
	

	public int getRandom()
	{
	 
      
	    return value;
	    
	 }
}
public static void main(String[] args)
	{
	    int min = 1;                 // smallest number that can be generated
	    int max = 20;                // largest number that can be generated
	    Random_Gen  rg = new Random_Gen(min, max);
	    int num;
	    int[] frequency = new int[max];
	    
	    
	    for (int x = 0; x < 10000; x++) 
	    {
	       num = rg.getRandom();
	       
	       System.out.println(num);
	       
	       for (int index = 0; index < max; index ++)     //determines frequency
	          {
	           if (num == index + 1) 
	             frequency[index]++;
	           }
	     }
	     
	     
	      for (int index = 0; index < max; index ++)     // displays frequency
	    {
	        System.out.println(""+(index+1) + " = " + frequency[index]);
	    }
   }

Can you use the java.util.Random class?
Edit: random numbers without using java funtions
aha - no java. Check the next method in the Random class for some clues.

i dont understand

carlos,
just like hardwired said there is another java class called Random you can upload before your programs you try something like this

Code:

java.util.Random;
public class RandomProject{
public staid void main(strings[] args){
Random generator = new Random(); //give a object name for the class
for(int i=0; i<=100; i++){
int randomNumbers = generator.nextInt(20);//will generate numbers from1-20
System.out.println(randomNumbers);
}
}
}

there you go you have now generated 100 random numbers between 1 and 20 hope this helps

Then try searching "generating random numbers" on Google and try to implement your own random number generator.
