random in Dev C++ still not working

Hi!

I want to use "random" in Dev C++ so that it chooses between two digits 1 and 2. But I don't seem to know how!

I have tried with

srand(time(NULL))
rand() % 2

but it gives me the numbers 0 and 1. Any one whol could help would be really appreciated.

Thank You very much!

If you can get 0 and 1 as random numbers and you need 1 and 2 then have a guess what you need to do. What's the difference between 1->2 and 0->1.

thank you for ur quick reply but Could u please be a little more explicit.

I dint quiet get what to do with smaller than and bigger than symbols.

thank you

If you get 0 or 1 then add 1 to the result to obtain either 1 or 2.

If you were wanting to get a random number between 1 and 2?!?

then the code would be,

srand(time(0));
rand()%2+1;

You would have to put that with a variable of course

Thank you Heavyd, it worked very well.
