randomInt

Description

Returns a pseudorandom integer between 0 (inclusive) and an upper bound (exclusive).

Syntax

Like many functions in DataPrime, randomInt supports two notations, function and method notation. These interchangeable forms allow flexibility in how you structure expressions.

randomInt(upperBound: number): number

(upperBound: number).randomInt(): number

Arguments

Example

Use case: Generate a random integer within a range

Create a pseudorandom integer between 0 and 99 and attach it to each document.

{
    "event": "login_attempt"
}

create random_num from randomInt(100)

create random_num from 100.randomInt()

Output

{
    "event": "login_attempt",
    "random_num": 57
}
