# Get Random Number

**Introduction**

The "Get Random Number" step generates a random number, which can either be an integer or a decimal number, based on the specified configuration. This step is useful for situations where randomness is needed, such as in games, simulations, or decision-making processes.

**Configuration**

* **Integer**: A boolean parameter that determines whether the generated number should be an integer (a whole number without decimals) or a decimal number (a number that can have decimals). This parameter is required and defaults to `Yes`, meaning the number will be an integer unless specified otherwise.
* **Bounds**: Defines the range within which the random number will be generated. The specific configuration of the bounds depends on whether the number is an integer or a decimal number:
  * **Minimum**: The lower limit of the number range.
  * **Maximum**: The upper limit of the number range.
  * When **Integer** is `Yes`, the bounds are specified as integers.
  * When **Integer** is `No`, the bounds are specified as decimal numbers.

**Outputs**

* **Result**: The random number generated within the specified bounds. This output is an integer or a decimal number, depending on the configuration of the **Integer** parameter. This result can be used in subsequent steps of the automation.
