Uses of Class
java.util.Random

Packages that use Random
java.math Provides classes for performing arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic (BigInteger) and arbitrary-precision decimal arithmetic (BigDecimal). 
java.security Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework. 
java.util Contains the collections framework, legacy collection classes, event model, date and time facilities, internationalization, and miscellaneous utility classes (a string tokenizer, a random-number generator, and a bit array). 
 

Uses of Random in java.math
 

Methods in java.math with parameters of type Random
static BigInteger BigInteger.probablePrime(int bitLength, Random rnd)
          Returns a positive BigInteger that is probably prime, with the specified bitLength.
 

Constructors in java.math with parameters of type Random
BigInteger(int numBits, Random rnd)
          Constructs a randomly generated BigInteger, uniformly distributed over the range 0 to (2numBits - 1), inclusive.
BigInteger(int bitLength, int certainty, Random rnd)
          Constructs a randomly generated positive BigInteger that is probably prime, with the specified bitLength.
 

Uses of Random in java.security
 

Subclasses of Random in java.security
 class SecureRandom
          This class provides a cryptographically strong pseudo-random number generator (PRNG).
 

Uses of Random in java.util
 

Methods in java.util with parameters of type Random
static void Collections.shuffle(List list, Random rnd)
          Randomly permute the specified list using the specified source of randomness.
