do {
r = Math.random();
} while (r == 1);
return minVal+Math.floor(r*(maxVal+1-minVal));

Hi guys this is best example I was searching the same. It was difficult to find out value randomly now it becomes very easy. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks you very much
Great post guys
var mrrandom = Math.floor(Math.random()*10);
$(“.myclass”).eq(mrrandom).click();
This is Best example. you can try it.
Thank you! As a total newbie developer this actually helped me complete my first (extremely simple and crude) website. Now to understand the Math command… :)
