/*
the following example code demonstrate us how can we
generate a random number within a range
if we set the range within nextInt() method to 1 to 10
then the system will generate a random number between 1 to 10
including both 1 and 10.
*/
//define a new Random class
Random r = new Random();
//minimum number to generate as random number
int minNumber = 1;
//maximum number to generate as random number
int maxNumber = 10;
//get the next random number within range
int randomNumber = r.nextInt((maxNumber-minNumber)+minNumber)+minNumber;
//reference the textview widget
TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_view);
//display the random number to textview
tv.setText(String.valueOf(randomNumber));
