Overview/Description
Mathematical operations are used to perform calculations of numeric data types and being able to generate random numbers is an important aspect of Computer Science. Java provides full functionality for mathematical operations and random number generation. In this course, you'll learn to use the Java Math and Random number generator classes. First, you'll explore the various methods provided by the Java Math and the Java Random class. Next, you'll learn about and review demonstrations of the use of the java.util.Random, the Java Math.random, and the Java ThreadLocalRandom classes. This course is one of a collection of courses that prepares learners for Oracle’s 1Z0-811: Java Certified Foundations Associate certification.
