I'm looking for an example about constructing data to be random (I know about the rand() function) but the data should be distributed in different ways (evenly, accelerating)- thanks for helping...and excuse my english

your english is fine : )
Hope this helps, i rlly don't kno much bout randomness:
Code:/* // Name: Code Example - generating random numbers // Description:Today in class we went over a few different concepts. I wrote my own examples of these C++ concepts. // By: Jared Bruni // // // Inputs:None // // Returns:None // //Assumes:None // //Side Effects:None //This code is copyrighted and has limited warranties. */ /* random number example written by Jared Bruni www.LostSideDead.com */ #include<iostream> #include<time.h> using namespace std; int main() { srand(time(NULL)); // seed randomization // now generate and display 10 random numbers 0-10 for(int i = 0; i < 500; i++) { cout << "random number: " << rand()%10 << endl; } return system("pause"); }
This is a simple function that gives good distribution:
-PreludeCode:int nrand ( int n ) { if ( n <= 0 || n > RAND_MAX ) throw domain_error ( "Argument to nrand is out of range" ); const int bucket_size = RAND_MAX / n; int r; do { r = rand() / bucket_size; } while ( r >= n ); return r; }
My best code is written with the delete key.
