Hello there ! 👋

I need to generate random numbers starting from 20 to 200.

Is there a way to do this with the roll dice ? 🙏

Hi @Korbib 🙂

You could probably do this easily in two steps:

1. Create a _Roll Dice_ column with the value 180 in _Sides_  

2. Add a _Math_ column to add 20 to this result  

  

There is also another option, with a _Random Number_ column (and a _Math_ one after that again). The formula to apply is - in your case - the following: `CEILING(random*180) + 20`

 ![Random Number](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/5/0500f0c5b0d195f42ac52226ffeb01a4f9be8cb2.png)

  

Last important point: in both cases (_Rool Dice_ & _Random Number_), you have the _Seed_ argument to define.  
If you use a fixed value, such as the `Row ID`, the result will always be the same for this specific row.  
If you want the random value to be different, a common way to make it works is to use the _Current time_ value or something that can change over time, when the user hits a button for instance.
