Generating a list of random numbers

Follow these steps to generate a list of random numbers:

1. Select the header of the column in which you want to generate the list of random numbers.
   
   
2. Press = followed by the expression for generating the random numbers.

   You can use the catalog to insert an expression instead of typing characters.

   Rand Int (1, 6, 20). This example places 20 random integers in the column.

   Use ctrl R (Recalculate) to generate a new set of random numbers.

   

Follow along with this example for generating a list of random numbers:

1. Open a new Lists and Spreadsheets application.
   
   
2. In the formula cell for column A, type "=randInt(0,1, 10)".

   This will generate a random integer between 0 and 1 inclusive 10 times.
