Random Number Generator?
I know that traditional Apache Velocity has a Mathtool and is accessed via $math. function() .
Is there a way to do this in Cascade such that #set (
$number = $math.add(1, 1) )
followed by
${number}
will give a result of 2
?
This would greatly help with presenting a fresh and dynamic webpage to the viewer each time they look at it if we could choose random blocks that have been filled out with a data definition.

Hi Joel,
There is a Math Tool available for Velocity Formats, which I believe is what you are looking for. For additional documentation, feel free to check out this page.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!

This is exactly what I needed. Thanks. I was unaware that it was prefixed with `$_Mathtool`. This helps a lot.
