Can you draw a sketch to illustrate this? In particular where the centre of rotations of each object is

"...relative to each other." and "...with multiples of 90 degrees at random sequence." sound like two opposing strategies. 

 

If you want to randomly rotate objects through 90 degrees only, generate random integers and then multiply these numbers with 90 to get your rotation angles (or better, multiply by 0.5*pi to get rotation angles in radians).

 

But I don't know what 'relative to each other' means.

Sorry the traslate from italian to english for me is hard!!

I want randomly rotate objects with multiples of 90 degree...now i don't know how generate random integers, but i try to do it....

Thanks one more time for your support!

this is the definition that i create after your comment...

The degrees are not multiples of 90 and i don't know why!

Can you help me?

Random by default generates floating point values. So when you set up the domain to be 1.0 to 3.0, you may get 2.354918 or 1.900723 or 3.915263. 

You need to toggle the Integer option to get only integers.
