How would you make this program: Write a program to generate 10 random real numbers between: a. 4 and 5 b. 0 and 10 c. 20 and 30 d. X any y where x and y are integer inputs |

One step at a time. How would you generate a random (any range) real number? Do that 10 times. Use basic arithmetic operations to transform the range to satisfy a,b,c... which are all just specific cases of d. |

dont we have Rand.Int()? |

We do! We even have the documentation on how it works and how to use it -- Rand.Int |

here, i'll make it simple. So you have 2 options, which are basically the same thing. Lets say the variable was x. 1) x := Rand.Int (a, b) 2) randint (x, a, b) a and b are just the parameters. If you wanted a random number between 1 and 10, you would replace a with 1 and b with 10. Either way wont really matter; The only time it would matter is when you have a compund var statement with the same random number like this: var a, b, c : int := Rand.Int (1, 3) anyways, hope that helps. |
