This capability is built into the java.util library! Just import the library using:
Code:
import java.util.*;
Now you can create an instance of the Random class wherever you need it. Once you have your instance you can use one of several methods to generate a random number:
Code:
Random generator = new Random();
int randomIndex = generator.nextInt( nMaxReturnVal );
For more information just google "java random number generator" and you'll get many articles on the subject.
