next
Gets the next random Int from the random number generator.
Generates an Int random value uniformly distributed between Int.MIN_VALUE and Int.MAX_VALUE (inclusive).

import kotlin.test.assertTrue
fun main() {
//sampleStart

}Gets the next random non-negative Int from the random number generator less than the specified until bound.
Generates an Int random value uniformly distributed between 0 (inclusive) and the specified until bound (exclusive).

fun main() {
//sampleStart
val menu = listOf("Omelette", "Porridge", "Cereal", "Chicken", "Pizza", "Pasta")

val forLunch = Random.nextInt(from = 3, until = 6).let { menu[it] }
// new meals every time
println("Today I want $forBreakfast for breakfast, and $forLunch for lunch.")

}Parameters
until
must be positive.
Throws
if until is negative or zero.
Gets the next random Int from the random number generator in the specified range.
Generates an Int random value uniformly distributed between the specified from (inclusive) and until (exclusive) bounds.
