How to generate a random number for each row in T-SQL

- 26.08.24 - ErcanOPAK

When called multiple times in a single batch, rand() returns the same number.

So it is better to use convert(varbinary,newid()) as the seed argument:

SELECT 1.0 + floor(110 * RAND(convert(varbinary, newid()))) AS random_number

newid() is guaranteed to return a different value each time it’s called, even within the same batch, so using it as a seed will prompt rand() to give a different value each time.

Edited to get a random whole number from 1 to 110.
