C# Creating Objects with random data [duplicate]

Question

I am trying to have the field "weight" in a class "apple" to be filled with a random weight - let's say between 80g an 120g. I would like to use the parameterless constructor of apple. Which would be the recommended way to do this.

Answer 1

I recommend to use static Random instance and re-use it on every constructor call like this:

 class Apple
    {
        private static Random rng = new Random();
        public int weight;

        public Apple()
        {
            weight = rng.Next(80, 121);
        }
    }
