The flavor nonzeroint describes a random nonzero integer in a particular range.

To describe a flavor of a random nonzero integer, use either nonzeroint or nonzeroint(opt) (where opt is described following) as the argument to RandomTools[Generate] or as part of a structured flavor.

By default, the flavor nonzeroint describes a random nonzero integer in the range $\mathrm{-499999999994}..499999999995$, inclusive.

You can modify the properties of the random nonzero integer by using the nonzeroint(opt) form of this command. The opt argument can contain the following equation.

range = a..b

This option describes the range from which the random integer is chosen. The endpoints must be of type integer and nonzero and they describe a random nonzero integer in the interval $a..b$, inclusive.

If the left-hand endpoint of the range is greater than the right-hand endpoint, an exception is raised.
