But does it return a random *number* as per the OP requirement ?

Questions to answer:
- Which transformation interface? ESQL, PHP, Java, Mapping?
- Exactly *how* random? 4 is a random number, and can appear an arbitrary number of times in a row in a truly mathematically random sequence (although very unlikely to do so). So a function that always returns 4 meets some definition of 'random'.
- Where have you looked for this answer?
- What have you tried?
