To generate a random number in JavaScript, use the built-in methods that produce a floating-point number between 0 (inclusive) and 1 (exclusive).

Below are the approaches to generate random numbers in JavaScript:

Using Math.random() method

The Math.random()method in JavaScript is a foundational function for generating pseudo-random floating-point numbers between 0 (inclusive) and 1 (exclusive).

Example: Randomly generating floating point number between 0 and 1 using the Math.random() method.

function random()
{
    let randomNumber= Math.random();
      console.log(randomNumber)
}
random();

function random()

{

    let randomNumber= Math.random();

      console.log(randomNumber)

}

random();

Using Math.floor() with Math.random()

UsingMath.floor()with Math.random() in JavaScript enables the creation of random integers within a defined range. This combination ensures a predictable outcome for applications such as games and simulations."

Example: Randomly generating integer within a specific range using the Math.floor() method along with the Math.random() method.

function random() {
  let randomNo = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
  console.log(randomNo);
}
random();

function random() {

  let randomNo = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);

  console.log(randomNo);

}

random();

Using Math.ceil() with Math.random()

The Math.ceil()method in JavaScript is used to round a number up to the nearest integer greater than or equal to the original value.

Example: Generating random integer using Math.ceil() along with math.random() method.

const randomInteger = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 10);

console.log(randomInteger);

const randomInteger = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 10);

​

console.log(randomInteger);

Using Math.round() with Math.random()

Using Math.round() with Math.random() in JavaScript allows for the generation of random integers by rounding the result of Math.random(). This is commonly used when a fair rounding to the nearest integer is needed.

Example: The below code uses Math.round() with Math.random() to generate random number.

const randomInteger = 
	Math.round(Math.random() * 10);

console.log(randomInteger);

const randomInteger = 

    Math.round(Math.random() * 10);

​

console.log(randomInteger);
