How to generate a random BigInteger value in Java?
To generate random BigInteger in Java, let us first set a min and max value −
BigInteger maxLimit = new BigInteger("5000000000000");
BigInteger minLimit = new BigInteger("25000000000");
Now, subtract the min and max −
BigInteger bigInteger = maxLimit.subtract(minLimit); Declare a Random object and find the length of the maxLimit: Random randNum = new Random(); int len = maxLimit.bitLength();
Now, set a new B integer with the length and the random object created above.
Example
import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.util.Random;
public class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
BigInteger maxLimit = new BigInteger("5000000000000");
BigInteger minLimit = new BigInteger("25000000000");
BigInteger bigInteger = maxLimit.subtract(minLimit);
Random randNum = new Random();
int len = maxLimit.bitLength();
BigInteger res = new BigInteger(len, randNum);
if (res.compareTo(minLimit) < 0)
res = res.add(minLimit);
if (res.compareTo(bigInteger) >= 0)
res = res.mod(bigInteger).add(minLimit);
System.out.println("The random BigInteger = "+res);
}
}
Output
The random BigInteger = 3874699348568
