random number between two numbers - Davidovich - 24.01.2011

I've seen on wiki the random function but it only has the "max" parameter, so it would generate a number between 0 and "max-1".

how can I generate a random number between two numbers? Like 5 and 10.... it would generate 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10.

Like this?

pawn Код:

stock randomEx(min, max)
{    
    //Credits to ******    
    new rand = random(max-min)+min;    
    return rand;
}

hm
looks nice, lol, thanks
I would use like this?

Код:

new A = randomEx(5,10);

And, it would generate 5 and 10 or only 6, 7, 8 and 9?
