The function called RANDBETWEEN() gives random numbers between two specified values. So to get a random number between 1 and 100 you would put:
=RANDBETWEEN(1,100)
It requires the Analysis Toolpack Add-in to be installed in order to work.

What's one of the random number generators of a pair of dice?
If you just want to roll a die and not learn how to do it, you can type "roll a die" into Google, and it will have a six-sided die for you to roll right on that page. Other sizes of dice rollers will be available in the search results as well. If you want to learn how to do it in Excel though, that is below: If you want to simulate the outcome of throwing a pair of dice (two die), it is easy and I will explain how to do this with Excel. A single die has a discrete uniform distribution, with values from 1 to 6. Some programs have a built in function for computing random values. Excel does not, but it does have a built in continuous random number generator rand() from 0 to 1. Rand() will generate numbers above 0 and below 1, so if I multiply the numbers by 6, I will have numbers above 0 and below 6. I will take this number and use the int function to round down the number to the next lowest whole number, so now I have discrete numbers from 0 to 5. I can add one to these numbers and now I have random numbers 1 to 6. So, in Excel you can use int(rand()*6)+1 to obtain the random numbers. I can put this equation in a second cell, and add them together. You can copy this equation many times and obtain many simulated throws of dice. In Excel, you can hit the F9 key and execute this program, obtaining different random numbers.
What is a random number table?
Random numbers (or random deviates) are numbers chosen totally by chance, but also conform to a certain distribution. The most common distribution is the uniform distribution. If I say that a number is chosen totally by chance between 1 and 100, and there is equal chance that every number between 1 and 100 can be chosen, then this is a uniformly distributed random number. If I list these generated numbers in a table, then this is a random number table. A program like Excel can easily generate uniform random numbers from 0 to 1, by entering +rand() into a column in the spreadsheet. To calculate a new table, press F9.
Can Microsoft Excel randomize orders of items in a list?
Just use =RAND() to generate random numbers in your list. Then you can sort it with the random numbers. Comments on answer: Let's just say the list is in column C and has 12 entries. Your answer says to "just use =RAND() to generate random numbers in your list". OK, so where "in the list" would I put the =RAND() function command? And in which cells would that function display the "random numbers in my list" that you suggest? And then, how would I go about sorting "it" with the random numbers that somewhere have been generated? Sorry for being the devil's advocate, but I just want to get clear info on how to do the task you answered.
Excel displays numbers as percentages?
Yes. Excel can display numbers as percentages. Do you have a question?
Is Excel better than Numbers?
The general opinion is that Excel is better than Numbers.
How high do the numbers on Microsoft Excel go?
65,536! 1,048,576 with Excel 2007
How do you randomly shuffle a column in Excel?
You can't randomly shuffle a column in Excel. Given the nature of spreadsheets, that would not always be a sensible thing to do. If you want to be able to generate a random set of numbers, then you can use the Randbetween function. It will give you a set of random numbers between two values that you choose. For example the following will give you a random number between 1 and 100.=randbetween(1,100)Every time you adjust any value on the spreadsheet, or press the F9 key, it will select a new set of random numbers. This can be useful for testing formulas without having to put loads of numbers in over and over again. If the function is not available, and returns the #NAME? error when you try to use it, install and load the Analysis ToolPak add-in, which you can do by choosing the Add-Ins option on the Tools menu.
What does the rand between function do in Excel?
It allows you to generate a random number between a range. So say you want to get a random number between 1 and 100, then you would use the RANDBETWEEN function like this:=RANDBETWEEN(1,100)It is a dynamic function, meaning every time something changes on the spreadsheet, it regenerates new numbers. This will also happen if you press the F9 key. It is a good function to get a set of numbers quickly and to test functions with, removing the need for you to create a load of random numbers yourself.
