Thread: Generating ranged randomized numbers

Can someone provide me with a string that generates randomized numbers that have a range from #-#. So if i wanted the DOS window to generate a number from 5-10; how would i do it? Thx

Can someone provide me with a string that generates randomized numbers

What does that mean? How does a string generate random numbers?

i mean i want a code to generate me random numbers from range to range

That is in the link treenef posted.

Code:

/*
 * This code is written in C, but it could just as easily be done in C++.
 * The rand() and srand() functions are available in both languages.
 */
 
#include <stdio.h>  
#include <stdlib.h>  
#include <time.h>  

int main(void)
{
  int i;
  
  srand(time(NULL));
  
  i = rand();
  
  printf ("Your random number is %d\n", i);  

  printf ("This compiler can generate random numbers from 0 to %d\n", RAND_MAX);

  return(0);
}

How do i set the max?

Look down further.
Not only does it have that code for C++ but below that it also had the range code.
