Thread: storing random number into array

Code:

for(int i = 0 ; i < SIZE ; i ++)
    {
        scanf("%d" , & selection[i]);
        srand((unsigned) time(&t));
        draw[i] = rand() % 50;  //feeling could be a problem with this line of code :::::
        
    }

is it possible to do this. i am trying to get 6 different numbers stored into 6 elements of an array . this is the piece of the code i think there is a problem with. ie my program scans the numbers and then crashes at this point so think it could be something to do with the commented line?

Check the FAQ on random numbers: FAQ > Generate random numbers? - Cprogramming.com. You're doing something wrong with srand.

First of all, please provide a small but complete example. Information missing such as what SIZE is or the definition of selection[] and draw[], etc...

Yes, your call to srand() is a problem. Always check the return value of scanf().
