So my main question is I'm running into a wall concerning setting up the for loops underneath "Running simulation" where I need to set up the first for loop to run the internal for loop 10 times, with each of those 10 iterations of the internal for loop coming up with random numbers for the range of acceptable results from the query for a random value. I've been told that the idea is to use the Monte Carlo method, i.e. I put in here both the Monte Carlo method and the normal random number generating method. Here it is:

- for (int i = 1; i <= simulations; i++)
- {
- int x = (rand()% (max-min + 1)) + min;
- while (water_level < capacity)
- {
- //double r = rand() * 1.0 / RAND_MAX;
- //double x = min + inflow_range * r;
- //int x = (rand()% (max-min + 1)) + min;
The problem is that the random number that is supposed to created are the same number. THey are different every time I run it, but they are the same every time the loops repeat to make a new simulation. I have tried to figure out what the problem is for hours and still stuck. Any help is very appreciated.
