Random number .......... - PaulDinam - 28.06.2012

I made a fish system so how can i know what numbers it can be from that code:
new randf = random(25)+15;

with this code when i do /fish it's usually gives me between 15-27

I want to make it betweeb 10-35

Use this stock function.

pawn Код:

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

Here is how you would use it in code.

pawn Код:

new randf = randomEx(10, 35);

No point in that memory allocation by the way (of "rand"), you could just shorten the whole function to this:

pawn Код:

stock randomEx(min, max) return random(max-min) + min;

A small change, but avoiding unnecessary memory allocation and redundant code
