Yes. For example, a solitaire player who has just lost a game might want to play the game again with the same shuffle of the deck to see if he can win with a better strategy.
nextInt()
Here are two methods (out of several) that Random objects provide.
The second method is the one most often used.
num must be a positive integer.
The random integers are selected from the range 0 up to and including num-1
but not including num.
int nextInt()— Returns the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributedintvalue.
All possibleintvalues, both positive and negative, are in the range of values returned.
int nextInt( int num )— Returns a pseudorandom, uniformly distributedint
value between 0 (inclusive) andnum(exclusive).
Say that you want pseudorandom numbers selected from the range 1 through 6.
How can nextInt( int num ) be used for that?
