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. |

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. |
