Random - TheNavigator - 13.10.2011

What was the code responsible for picking up a random number between numbers?

random()

pawn Код:

new RandomNumber = random(500);
print( RandomNumber );

That will print a number between 0-500

Re: Random - AeroBlast - 13.10.2011

random(number);

Ex:

pawn Код:

rand = random(3);
switch(rand)
{
    case 0: Blah Blah;
    case 1: Blah Blah;
    case 2: Blah Blah;
}

EDIT: I'm tad late...

Wrong. 0-499

Thanks for your help guys anyway

I searched and it said Rand at some places, so I wanted to make sure

If you want to get numbers between a certain x digit and a certain y digit, you can add this to the bottom of your script:

pawn Код:

// credit to KyleSmith
stock randomEx(minnum = cellmin, maxnum = cellmax)
{
    return random(maxnum - minnum + 1) + minnum;
}

Then use it to get random lotto numbers for example:

pawn Код:

new lotto = randomEx(1,100); // will pick a random number between 1 and 100

Or for a simple cash payout, between 10,000 and 20,000:

pawn Код:

new payout = randomEx(10000,20000); // will choose a random amount between 10k to 20k
GivePlayerMoney(playerid,payout); // give the player the random cash payout
print(payout); // print the random cash payout

I already know that

I'll tell you something. I started scripting just few weeks ago, but it seems very easy for me

The main reason is that I know C

Thanks for everyone for help anyway
