Definition

The random float transformer generates a random floating point number.

For example: 32.2432

By default, the random float transformer generates a floating point number with 2 digits before the decimal point and 3 digits after the decimal point.

Configurations

Depending on your validations, you may want to configure the output float. The random float transformer has the following configurations:

Name	Description	Default	Example Input	Example Output
Preserve Length	Preserves the length of the input float to the output float while maintaining the placement of the decimal.	false	1.34	873.923
Digits before Decimal	Specifies how many digits you want before the decimal place. This has a max of 9 digits.	2	23.24	94.17
Digits after Decimal	Specifies how many digits you want after the decimal place. This has a max of 9 digits.	3	87923.4	34.8

Examples

There are several ways you can mix-and-match configurations to get different potential random float formats. Here are some possible combinations:

PreserveLength	Digits before Decimal	Digits after Decimal	Example Input	Example Output
false	N/A	N/A	89.232	23.824
true	4	1	2.344	9.813
true	2	3	678.23	54.129
