# Numeric (integer)

Below is a list of available numeric (integer) mock data generators.

## Standard mock data generators

| Mock generator        | Description                                                   |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Age                   | A numerical representation of a person's age.                 |
| HTTP status code      | A random HTTP status code from a list of commonly used codes. |
| Port number           | A random network port number used for computer networking.    |
| Random digit          | A randomly generated digit character.                         |
| Random digit not null | A randomly generated non-zero digit character.                |

## Custom integer

Generates integer values with each placeholder in `Custom integer` field.

#### Parameters

* `Custom integer`: Each placeholder is replaced according to the following rules:
  * Number signs (‘#’) are replaced with a random digit (0 to 9).
  * Percent signs (‘%’) are replaced with a random non-zero digit (1 to 9).
  * Dollar signs (‘$’) are replaced with a random digit above two (2 to 9).
* `Consistent mapping`: Custom integer supports [consistent mapping](/configure-a-data-generation-job/configure-column-settings/consistent-mapping.md).

**Note**: Additionally, any digits between 0 and 9 can be used in the pattern, apart from 0 as the first character. For example, '%#$#' will create a 4 digit number following the rules above.

#### Example <a href="#example---shifting-a-set-of-dates" id="example---shifting-a-set-of-dates"></a>

If you configure:

```
Custom integer as: %#$#
```

The results will be:

```
1188,
6894,
3870,
...
```

## Uniform distribution

Generates a random integer between `Minimum` and `Maximum`.

#### Parameters

* `Minimum` : The minimum value of the integer (inclusive).
* `Maximum`: The maximum value of the integer (exclusive).
* `Consistent mapping`: Uniform distribution supports [consistent mapping](/configure-a-data-generation-job/configure-column-settings/consistent-mapping.md).

#### Example <a href="#example---shifting-a-set-of-dates" id="example---shifting-a-set-of-dates"></a>

If you configure:

```
Minimum as: 5
Maximum as: 10
```

The results will be:

```
9,
5,
7,
...
```

## Numeric series

Generates numeric (integer) series starting at `Start` with `Steps`.

#### Parameters

* `Start` (int): The minimum value of the numeric (integer) (inclusive).
* `Step` (int): The step at a size numeric (integer) series will continue.
* `Consistent mapping`: Numeric series supports [consistent mapping](/configure-a-data-generation-job/configure-column-settings/consistent-mapping.md).

#### Example <a href="#example---shifting-a-set-of-dates" id="example---shifting-a-set-of-dates"></a>

If you configure:

```
Start: 3
Step: 5
```

The results will be:

```
2,
7,
12,
...
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.syntho.ai/configure-a-data-generation-job/configure-column-settings/mockers/numeric-integer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
