Random Number Genorator

Hello

First of all I would like to Welcome you to this community of programmers.

Here is the code to do what you need

Code:

int CWordsDlg::GetRandomNumer(int high,int low)
 {
   time_t SeedTime;
   struct tm SeedDate;
   SeedTime = time(0);
   SeedDate = *localtime(&SeedTime);
   int FinalSeed = (int)SeedTime + SeedDate.tm_mday + (SeedDate.tm_mon+1) + (SeedDate.tm_year+1900);
   srand((unsigned int) FinalSeed);
 
   int Interval = high - low + 1;
   int RandomOffset = rand() % Interval;
   int RandomNumber = low + RandomOffset;
   return RandomNumber;
 }
 
    

Its a fairly simple function which needs any explanation but then also if you need any just put a post here.

Thanks

As a parameter to the function and it will give result output a random number between the parameter high and low.

 

Just remove that

Code:

int GetRandomNumer(int high,int low)
 {
   time_t SeedTime;
   struct tm SeedDate;
   SeedTime = time(0);
   SeedDate = *localtime(&SeedTime);
   int FinalSeed = (int)SeedTime + SeedDate.tm_mday + (SeedDate.tm_mon+1) + (SeedDate.tm_year+1900);
   srand((unsigned int) FinalSeed);
 
   int Interval = high - low + 1;
   int RandomOffset = rand() % Interval;
   int RandomNumber = low + RandomOffset;
   return RandomNumber;
 }

As it was taken from my MFC Application that class name came up.
