    Random number seed

    I'm trying to write a program that generates a random number between 50 and 200. I made a program that generates random numbers, but i cannot figure out how to make those random numbers be in-between 50 and 200. Can anyone give me an example of a program that generates random numbers that are confined in-between certain values?

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
