Animator - going back to the idle state

Questions & Answers
1

My character is playing a idle animation (using animator) which is set to loop, when I click the button I would like to play a random animation (which it does (a random jump animation)).

If I click the button again nothing will happen because the animation is now at the jump state how would I code this to go back to the idle state so when the user clicks the button it will choose a random jump animation again.

Heres my code:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class waypointMessage : MonoBehaviour {

	Animator anim;//public or private
	int pickAnumber; 

	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () 
	{
		anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
	}

	void OnGUI () 
	{
		if(GUI.Button(new Rect(20,40,150,40), "Play different animation")) 
		{
			pickAnumber = Random.Range(1,3);//exclusive never prints the last only goes 1 to 2
			Debug.Log (pickAnumber);

			//randJumpInt is the parameter in animator
			//pickAnumber randon number from 1 to 2 from above
			anim.SetInteger ("randJumpInt", pickAnumber);

			//how do I go back to the original state idle animation
		}

	}
}

In the animator window, you can just add a transition from the jump states back to the idle states where the condition to make the transition would be “Exit Time”.
