Ok, I'm new to c++, I'm trying to make my second program. And I would like to know what is the c++ operation to get a random number. Can you help me??
And as we are there, can you give it to me in a usefull syntax??
Like can you tell me how to get:
x = ( random number between 1 and 10 )
This might not be the precise syntax, but:
This will generate a 'fake' random number from 1 to 100 i think. However, I could be mistaken. Anyone?Code:int h = rand() % 100;
> x = ( random number between 1 and 10 )
int x = (int)( (double)rand() * 10 / RAND_MAX + 1 );
>This will generate a 'fake' random number from 1 to 100 i think.
From 0 to 99.
>int h = rand() % 100;
This is a bad way to get a random number for reasons which I've stated many times before, do a board search for more details.

My best code is written with the delete key.
You're a little off, there. The code u gave will generate a random number from 0 to 99.Originally posted by alkis_y3k

SKINp, do a search of this board for random numbers. You should be able to find tons of threads on generating random numbers within certain bounds and using your computer's internal clock to make the pseudo-random numbers seem more random.

If you would like true random numbers and have alot of money, I bet the people at LavaRand would be glad to make you a setup.
Hee in each of your way, I get an error telling me:
implicit declaration of fonction 'int rand(...)'
Make sure to include stdlib.h.
