Remarks
Random..::..Next generates a random number whose value ranges from zero to less than Int32..::..MaxValue. To generate a random number whose value ranges from zero to some other positive number, use the Random..::..Next(Int32) method overload. To generate a random number within a different range, use the Random.Next(Int32, Int32) method overload.
