https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/random.html

so

Code: Select all: photoNumber = indigo.variables['PhotosCount'] randomNumber = int(random.random() * int(photoNumber.value)) indigo.variable.updateValue(photoNumber, value=unicode(randomNumber))

Untested. But it'll be close.

Couple small tweaks (importing module and adding 1 to randomNumber):

Code: Select all: import random photoNumber = indigo.variables['PhotosCount'] randomNumber = int(random.random() * int(photoNumber.value)) + 1 indigo.variable.updateValue(photoNumber, value=unicode(randomNumber))
