Platform and version requirements: JVM (1.0), JS (1.0), Native (1.0) 
companion object Default : Random

The default random number generator.

On JVM this generator is thread-safe, its methods can be invoked from multiple threads.

import kotlin.random.Random
import kotlin.test.assertTrue

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
//sampleStart
val randomValues = List(10) { Random.nextInt(0, 100) }
// prints new sequence every time
println(randomValues)

val nextValues = List(10) { Random.nextInt(0, 100) }
println(nextValues)
println("randomValues != nextValues is ${randomValues != nextValues}") // true
//sampleEnd
}
