How to generate a random integer in a chosen inclusive range

1. Set the range

   "Min" and "Max" are inclusive bounds. The tool returns an integer N with `min ≤ N ≤ max`. Equal bounds produce that single value every time; if `min > max` the tool throws "Min must be ≤ max."

2. Press Run

   Result returns a single `value` field. Distribution is uniform — each integer in the range is equally likely. Powered by `Math.random()`, which is fine for trivia and tie-breakers but NOT cryptographically secure.

3. When you need crypto strength

   Anything involving money, raffles, security tokens, or anti-fraud should NOT use this tool. Generate server-side with `crypto.randomInt(min, max + 1)` (Node) or `window.crypto.getRandomValues` in browsers.

4. Avoiding bias for tiny ranges

   For ranges of just 2-3 values, the difference between `Math.random()` and crypto-strength is undetectable. For sampling thousands of small ranges in series (e.g. shuffling), the cumulative bias of `Math.random` becomes measurable.
