Felu was the first one to post a reply to this thread and which I also quoted in my post. His post was only deleted long after you replied to my post... So you could have seen that.

The "Math.floor((upperbound - lowerbound + 1)..." is also in my original post, clearly visible... You could have seen that too.

You first replied in this thread 6 hours after my last edit of my original reply, so don't say you missed something because it wasn't there or because I edited in afterwards

:p

lol you're right, it's in the quote part :P
I guess it's just that I would have repeated it just before working it out to make clear why there is a pointless addition and subtraction in one line of code. Just like you did in the other post:

thus
   Math.floor(Math.random() * 100 + 1);

I just noticed it looked weird and didn't immediately see why you used it, that's all ;)
