Random

Generates random numbers within a specified range.

Structure

Random [ ( Range: Integer) ];

Parameters

Return Value

Description

Random returns a random number within the range 0 <= X < Range. If Range is not specified, the result is a real-type random number within the range

0 <= X < 1.

To initialize the random number generator, add a single call Randomize or assign a value to the RandSeed variable before making any calls to Random.

Note

Because the implementation of the Random function may change between compiler versions, we do not recommend using Random for encryption or other purposes that require reproducible sequences of pseudo-random numbers. |
