generating random real numbers

[kpayne]

need help

with a program to generate 10 random real numbers between:
a. 4 and 5
b. 0 and 10
c. 20 and 30
d. x and y, where x and y are integer values inputted by the user.

Ok, sounds doable. Now would you be so kind as to post up a little bit of your code so we can see how far you have progressed in solving this problem. Even you don't want to reveal your blindingly top secret algorithms, then pseudocode will do just fine .
Code would be preferred though.

Don't forget to use [code] tags when you post it!

i just started turing for the first time in my life 3 days ago. Haven't got very far with this program

Not a problem in the least. Show us what you have so far.

You will need for loops and the Rand.Int (upperNum, lowerNum) statement

as long as you don't want us to do your homework for u we can help

From what I can gather, it seems that you want to generate a random number that includes a decimal, and your problem is that Rand.Int creates a random integer. One possible way of solving this would be to have two Rand.int Statements: one for the number and one for the decimal. Ex:

code:

var number : real var decimal : int number := Rand.Int (0, 5) decimal := Rand.Int (0, 9) number += decimal / 10 put number

I just needed some pointers and example, which u guys already posted
thankx a lot
