Thread: random file name

how would i name the file with a random name?
i get these errors when i try and compile

Code:

10 C:\Documents and Settings\wmorrish\Desktop\New Folder\main.cpp invalid conversion from `int' to `const char*' 
10 C:\Documents and Settings\wmorrish\Desktop\New Folder\main.cpp    initializing argument 1 of `std::basic_ofstream<_CharT,  

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdio>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    srand((unsigned)time(0));
    int name = rand()%3;
    ofstream new_file(name, ios::app);
    new_file << "leval 1" <<endl;
}

Reading the error message will give you clues.

10 is the line number the error was detected on. Then comes the file name, then the error itself. To use the first as an example, you're using an integer where there should be a character-type. name is declared as an integer, and in line 10 you pass it to a function that is expecting a const char* to be specific. Typecast name to a char.

And if you absolutely have to ask questions about it, please make sure you understand the difference between a hacker and a cracker.
