| Sep 21, 2013 at 8:51 | comment | added | Herng Yi | One polygon is enough, but if I generate many successively I don't really care whether they intersect each other. | |
| Sep 21, 2013 at 7:54 | comment | added | Hector | Are the polygons non intersecting with themselves or also against each other? | |

| Sep 21, 2013 at 7:18 | comment | added | Herng Yi | Yes, that is allowed, and desired. The question did not exclude such a possibility, and "randomness" would definitely produce some concave angles, but let me edit this into the question just to be safe. | |
| Sep 21, 2013 at 7:13 | comment | added | Vitaliy Kaurov | Can it have concave angles? | |
| Sep 21, 2013 at 7:13 | comment | added | Herng Yi | Generating a random cyclic graph - which is the limit of what RandomReal or RandomInteger can do - might yield a self-intersecting polygon, which I wish to avoid. I have elaborated on that in my edit to the question. | |

| Sep 21, 2013 at 6:51 | comment | added | Pinguin Dirk | as @YvesKlett said, maybe: Graphics@Polygon[RandomReal[{5, 10}, {RandomInteger[{2, 10}], 2}]] or similar? | |
