Public instance methods

int Next(int minValue, int maxValue)

Returns a random number within a specified range.

Parameters
return `int`	A 32-bit signed integer greater than or equal to `minValue` and less than `maxValue`; that is, the range of return values includes `minValue` but not `maxValue`. If `minValue` equals `maxValue`, `minValue` is returned.
`int` minValue	The inclusive lower bound of the random number returned.
`int` maxValue	The exclusive upper bound of the random number returned. `maxValue` must be greater than or equal to `minValue`.

int Next()

Returns a nonnegative random number.

Parameters
return `int`	A 32-bit signed integer greater than or equal to zero and less than MaxValue.

int Next(int maxValue)

Returns a random number less then a specified maximum.

Parameters
return `int`	A 32-bit signed integer less than `maxValue`.
`int` maxValue	The exclusive upper bound of the random number returned.

void NextBytes(Byte[] buffer)

Fills the elements of a specified array of bytes with random numbers.

Parameters
`Byte[]` buffer	An array of bytes to contain random numbers.

double NextDouble()

Parameters
return `double`

Double[] NextDouble(int n)

Returns an array of uniformly distributed random doubles in the interval [0.0,1.0].

Parameters
return `Double[]`	An array of uniformly distributed random doubles in the interval [0.0,1.0].
`int` n	The size of the array.
