Choose between 2 numbers?

kt559

Hi, I'm new to processing, I was wondering if anyone could help me out I'm trying to figure out how to write a code that chooses one of two numbers randomly, like flipping a coin

i want to be able to choose between 95 and 210 so each time the program runs it chooses 95 or 210 for the x value

thanks!

int val=random(1)>0.5?95:210;  
println("Val is " + val);

same idea, written in a longer form:

float xvalue; 



if(random(100) > 50){
     xvalue=95;
}
else {
    xvalue = 210;
}
