    how to change a random variable to double ?

    Hello .
    I am newbe in C# and working on Randon type .
    a part of my code is :

    Code:
    Random r = new Random();
    Double R;
    for(int i=0;i<10;++i)
    {
         r.NextDouble();
         R=r;
    but I get an error in the "R=r;" line .
    is it possible to change a random variable to double ?

    thank you

    I forgot to say the goal .
    I have an array of double between 0-1 and want to do some operations on it depend on the generated random r , but I get error messages in those lines

    Code:
    for(int i=0;i<10;++i)
          {
    	r.NextDouble();
    	if(r<qk[0])              <---one error here
    	{
    		atemp[i]=a[i];
    		btemp[i]=b[i];
    	}
    	else
    	{
    		int j=1;
    		while((j<10)&&(qk[j+1]<Math.Round(r,6)))   <---- here too  
    		       j++;
                                             .
                                             .
                                             .
    it is why I want to change it to double

    thank you

    The NextDouble() function returns the double. Try:
    Code:
    R = r.NextDouble();
    If I did your homework for you, then you might pass your class without learning how to write a program like this. Then you might graduate and get your degree without learning how to write a program like this. You might become a professional programmer without knowing how to write a program like this. Someday you might work on a project with me without knowing how to write a program like this. Then I would have to do you serious bodily harm. - Jack Klein
