## Parameters

### Random Seed

Parameter ID: `GV_RANDOM_SEED` · Range: [-2147483648..2147483647]

If you use more than one Random node in your expression, each of the nodes will generate the same number unless you enter a different **Random Seed value** for each node. Alternatively, pass the value to each node via the Random Seed port.

### Bool

Parameter ID: `GV_RANDOM_OUTPUT_BOOL`

### Integer

Parameter ID: `GV_RANDOM_OUTPUT_INTEGER` · Range: [-2147483648..2147483647]

### Real

Parameter ID: `GV_RANDOM_OUTPUT_REAL` · Range: [-∞..+∞]

### Vector

Parameter ID: `GV_RANDOM_OUTPUT_VECTOR` · Range: [XYZ ]

### Normal

Parameter ID: `GV_RANDOM_OUTPUT_NORMAL`

This node can generate random values in boole-, integer-, real-, or vector formats. You can specify the file type via the output port.
