 In the one parameter version, N must be greater than or equal to 1.
-In the two parameter version, A must not equal B, and if B is less than A, they are implicitly swapped.
+In the two parameter version, if B is less than A, they are implicitly swapped. If A and B are the same, then that is the number that will always be returned.
-Note: Unlike all the other variants of //RAND()// and [[function:RANDOM|RANDOM()]], RAND(A,B) may return the larger number.  This makes RAND(1,6) return the same as a regular dice for example, a number from 1-6 inclusive, which matches what you would normally want.
