What is the expected behavior?
Calling Random.Double(double.MinValue, double.MaxValue) should generated a double between these constraints.
What is the actual behavior?
The method always returns Infinity.
This does not happen though when using e.g.
double.MinValue, 0
or 0, double.MaxValue.
A quick look at the Double method revealed that there is no magnitute/value limitation in line 186.
In particular, the calculation (max - min) + min causes this behavior.
Similar behavior can be reproduced for the Float and Decimal randomizers.
Please provide a stack trace.
Bogus.dll!Bogus.Randomizer.Double(double min, double max) Line 186 C#
