    You can use this function to generate random integers in the Min...Max range:

    Function RandomNumber(Min, Max)
  Randomize
  RandomNumber = Int(Min + Rnd*(Max - Min + 1))
End Function

    Usage:

    number = RandomNumber(0, 100)

      Function RandomNumber(Min, Max)
  Randomize
  RandomNumber = Int(Min + Rnd*(Max - Min + 1))
End Function

      I tried to implement this logic using python , its not working 

       

      I tried as below

      def  RandomNumber(Min, Max)
      Randomize
      RandomNumber = Int(Min + Rnd*(Max - Min + 1))

       

      Here am getting error in the second line ie. "Randomize" doesnt exist in python. Please advice

        import random

random.randint(min_, max_) #will return random integer between min_ and max_

         

        In Python you should use a module random to operate random values.
