I need a little help with randomizing numbers, is there any way to set a limit to the numbers such as between 1 and 10 |

by number I assume you mean integer. if you are assigning to a variable, there are 2 ways to do it. var numbr : int 1) randint(numbr,1,10) or 2) numbr := Rand.Int(1,10) If you are doing a calculation and do not need to store the number, I recommend using the second option. If you did not mean integer then you can do this. var numbr2 : real numbr2 := Rand.Real*Rand.Int(1,10) The way these rand functions work is like this randint (numbr,1,10) number is your assigning variable 1 is your minimum number 10 is your maximum number rand or Rand.Real returns a real number between 0 and 1 (some random decimal) -bunny |
