Get Random List Items Using GetItems

[zenfreak]

I would like to be able to get a random number of items from my list.

return string.Join(";", project.Lists["List 1"].GetItems("random20(1,12-15,35-end)"));

Following the documentation example, I would like to be able to replace 20 with another random value generated like this:

Random rnd = new Random();
int randomListValues = rnd.Next(1,7);

How can I replace the 20 from random20 with my randomListValues variable?

Obviously doing this does not work:

return string.Join(";", project.Lists["List 1"].GetItems("randomrandomListValues(1,12-15,35-end)"));

Replacing the range values (1,12-15,35-end) with my custom would also be helpfull

Still needing this ...

Random rnd = new Random();
string randomListValues = rnd.Next(1, 7).ToString();
return string.Join(";", project.Lists["List 1"].GetItems("random" + randomListValues + "(1,12-15,35-end)"));

Replacing the range values (1,12-15,35-end) with my custom would also be helpfull

Random rnd = new Random();
string randomListValues = rnd.Next(1, 7).ToString();
string rangeValues = "1,12-15,35-end";
return string.Join(";", project.Lists["List 1"].GetItems("random" + randomListValues + "(" + rangeValues + ")"));

Thank you for taking the time to provide this answer. When I look at it now it makes sense

How can I get the first 100 elements from a list using GetItems?

No random and no rangevalues, just get the first 100 elements while also removing them
