If one bound is specified, the function will return an integer number between 1 and that bound (inclusive). If both bounds are specified, the function will return an integer between bound1 and bound2. bound2 must be greater than bound1.

Parameters

generator: (number) PRNG algorithm to use, use 0 for default engine (MT19937) optional
bound1: (number) first bound of the range returned number must be in optional
bound2: (number) second bound of the range returned number must be in optional
