Hi i'm new to greenfoot.
I want to get random numbers between 85 and 95
But i'm not sure how.
i know to get a random number between 0 and 90 it's like this
Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(90);
But i don't want that i want that range.

Random Numbers quesition
I know i could say something like.
Oh never mind i figured it out.
ask for a random number between 0 and 10
so
Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(10);
Then add 85 to that random number.
now range is between 85 and 95
Keep in mind, when you use 'Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(10)', you will get a number between 0 and 9, inclusive.
That is, the number supplied is the range of numbers to take a random sample from (or the number of items to pick one out of). Starting at 0, the tenth item will be 9.
Basically, what I am saying, is that if you are to include 95 as a valid return, you need to use 11 in the random number statement.
