How to get a random real number between min and max?

// es2015
// random real number in range {min, max}, including min but excluding max. version 2017-05-12
const xah_random_real = ((xmin,xmax) => ( Math.random() * (xmax - xmin) + xmin));

Here's pre es2015 version:

// pre es2015

var xah_random_real = function (xmin,xmax) {
    // random real number in range {min, max}, including min but excluding max.
    // version 2017-05-12
    return Math.random() * (xmax - xmin) + xmin;
};

How to get a random integer?

// es2015
// random integer in range {min, max}, including min and max
const xah_random_int = ((xmin,xmax) => (Math.floor( Math.random() * (xmax + 1 - xmin) + xmin ))) ;

Here's pre es2015 version:

// pre es2015
var xah_random_int = function (xmin,xmax) {
    // random integer in range {min, max}, including min and max
    return Math.floor( Math.random() * (xmax + 1 - xmin) + xmin );
};
