Random int between two values

[tor.brandt]

So, the Random command returns a random number between 0 and MAX.
But how would I make it return a random number between some specified minimum value higher than 0 and MAX?

Make it return value between 0 and (MAX - MIN), then add MIN to random result.
E.g. you need value between 10 and 20, do "Random(10) + 10".

Or write convenience function

Code: ags

int RandomMinMax(int min, int max)
{
    return Random(max - min) + min;
}

Aahhh yes, of course. So simple, and yet so very very hard for my brain to grasp
Thanks!
