asp.net mvc c# random generating same number [duplicate]

Question

how can i generate different number,it is generating the same number

Random rand = new Random(100000);
rand.Next();

Answer 1

Just remove the seed number in the constructor. This seed is essentially a number from which the random number list is generated. If you specify a constant number, your random number list will always be the same.

Random rand = new Random();
rand.Next();

Answer 2

Your specifying the same seed try this.

Random rand = new Random();
rand.Next();

This will use the default seed which is the time.

"Initializes a new instance of the Random class, using a time-dependent default seed value."

As per MSDN : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.random.aspx

Re your comment above, how to generate a "random" number in a set range.

// Generate and display 5 random integers from 50 to 100.
Console.WriteLine("Five random integers between 50 and 100:");
Console.Write("{0,8:N0}", rand.Next(50, 101));

(Taken from MSDN link above) You can now generate whatever range you want.
