Consider the following code:
int rand = new Random().nextInt((30 - 20) + 1) + 20
It will return a random number between 30 and 20. However, I need its range to include negative numbers. How would I include negative numbers in the generation? I have tried using math that would be negative, but that resulted in an error. Simply subtracting or adding the negative numbers would not yield the desired value.
EDIT: Sorry, I am only half awake. The correct code is int rand = new Random().nextInt((30 - 20) + 1) + 20;.

To get random number between a set range with min and max:
int number = random.nextInt(max - min) + min;
Also works with negative numbers
So:
random.nextInt(30 + 10) - 10;
// max = 30; min = -10;
Will yield a random int between -10 and 30.(exclusive)
Also works with doubles
