Random number within TWO ranges

Question

Is there anyway to select a random number within TWO ranges ? For example, a random number between the range (10 to 50) OR (100 to 200).
Thank you !

Answer 1

This is a simple class that produces a number between a range:
class RandomRange
static java.util.Random random= new java.util.Random();
*    Return an int between n1 and n2
static int getIntBetween(int n1, int n2) // n2 must be greater than n1 or n2-n1 must be positive
// get random number between 0 and the range(n2 - n1)
int result= random.nextInt(n2- n1);
// plus the offset
result += n1;
return result;
// return random.nextInt(n2 - n1) + n1;
// the result is n2 exclusive, to make it inclusive return (result + 1)
*    Return a double between d1 and d2
static double getDoubleBetween(double d1, double d2)
return random.nextDouble()*(d2 - d1) + d1;
// d1 and d2 can be any value
*    Return a float between f1 and f2
static float getFloatBetween(float f1, float f2)
// similar
