Random Numbers in Mercury

Here’s the translation of the Go code to Java, with explanations in Markdown format suitable for Hugo:

Java’s java.util.Random class provides pseudorandom number generation.

import java.util.Random;

public class RandomNumbers {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Random rand = new Random();

        // For example, nextInt(100) returns a random int n,
        // 0 <= n < 100.
        System.out.print(rand.nextInt(100) + ",");
        System.out.println(rand.nextInt(100));

        // nextDouble() returns a double f,
        // 0.0 <= f < 1.0.
        System.out.println(rand.nextDouble());

        // This can be used to generate random doubles in
        // other ranges, for example 5.0 <= f' < 10.0.
        System.out.print((rand.nextDouble() * 5) + 5 + ",");
        System.out.println((rand.nextDouble() * 5) + 5);

        // If you want a known seed, create a new
        // Random object with a specific seed.
        Random r2 = new Random(42);
        System.out.print(r2.nextInt(100) + ",");
        System.out.println(r2.nextInt(100));

        Random r3 = new Random(42);
        System.out.print(r3.nextInt(100) + ",");
        System.out.println(r3.nextInt(100));
    }
}

Some of the generated numbers may be different when you run the sample.

Note: Java doesn’t have an exact equivalent to Go’s math/rand/v2 package with PCG (Permuted Congruential Generator). The standard java.util.Random class uses a different algorithm. For more advanced random number generation, you might want to look into the java.util.concurrent.ThreadLocalRandom class or third-party libraries that implement PCG.

Java's `java.util.Random` class provides pseudorandom number generation.

```java
import java.util.Random;

public class RandomNumbers {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Random rand = new Random();

        // For example, nextInt(100) returns a random int n,
        // 0 <= n < 100.
        System.out.print(rand.nextInt(100) + ",");
        System.out.println(rand.nextInt(100));

        // nextDouble() returns a double f,
        // 0.0 <= f < 1.0.
        System.out.println(rand.nextDouble());

        // This can be used to generate random doubles in
        // other ranges, for example 5.0 <= f' < 10.0.
        System.out.print((rand.nextDouble() * 5) + 5 + ",");
        System.out.println((rand.nextDouble() * 5) + 5);

        // If you want a known seed, create a new
        // Random object with a specific seed.
        Random r2 = new Random(42);
        System.out.print(r2.nextInt(100) + ",");
        System.out.println(r2.nextInt(100));

        Random r3 = new Random(42);
        System.out.print(r3.nextInt(100) + ",");
        System.out.println(r3.nextInt(100));
    }
}
