Math functions

[Nathan Barron <na...@Rightmove.co.uk>]

Guys
 
I am trying to obtain a random number from within my velocity macros. Is
there a function I can use to generate a random number without having to
push a random number into the context from a Java file.
I am looking for a function like $!Math.random()
 
Any help would be much appreciated

Look into the tools

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-velocity-
tools/tools/src/java/org/apache/velocity/tools/tools/

There is a MathTool that provides the random function you need.
