minThe minimum of the rangemaxThe maximum of the rangerandom(3, 12) -- random number between 3 and 12random(arr);Arguments
arrThe array to randomly select an item fromrandom({ 'A', 'B', 'C' }) -- random element in tableReturns
numberThe random valueround(x);Round a number to the nearest integer.
Arguments
xThe value to roundReturns
intThe rounded valuefloor(x);floor is a function that takes in a number, and returns the greatest integer less or equal to x.
Arguments
xThe value to floorReturns
intgreatest integer less than or equals to xceil(x);ceil is a function that takes in a number, and returns the smallest integer greater or equal to x.
Arguments

intThe floored valuemin(a, b);Return the smallest value.
Can also take any number of arguments, or a table.
Arguments
aThe first valuebThe second valueReturns
numberThe smallest valuemin(6, 7); -- returns 6
min(6, 7, 4); -- returns 4
min({ 6, 7, 4 }); -- returns 4max(a, b);Return the largest value.
