This should give you what you need: public static int getLinnearRandomNumber(int maxSize){ //Get a linearly multiplied random number int randomMultiplier = maxSize * (maxSize + 1) / 2; Random r=new Random(); int randomInt = r.nextInt(randomMultiplier); //Linearly iterate through the possible values to find the correct one int linearRandomNumber = 0; for(int i=maxSize; randomInt >= 0; … Read more
