Math.random() generates a double between 0 and 1. Play around with it to get what you want

One issue that comes up fairly often around here is the poor quality of the pseudo-random number generators supplied with many C implementations. As a result, we have to recommend things like using the high-order bits returned by rand() instead of the low-order bits, avoiding using rand() for anything that wants decently random numbers, not using rand() if you want more than approx. UINT_MAX total different sequences, and so on. So I...

I know how to use rand() to generate random POSITIVE-INTEGER numbers. But, I'd like to generate a random DOUBLE number in the range of 0.0 to 1.0 with resolution of a double (i.e., every possible double value in the range could come up with equal probability). I'd also like to be able to seed this generator (e.g., via the clock) so that the same sequence of random values don't come up every time. Anybody have an easy and fast...

Hey guys Using Random(), how random is it, is it possible to be predicted? I have a requirement for a very good random number generator. I was doing something such as: Random randomSeed = new Random((int)_seedTimer.ElapsedTicks); _random = new Random(randomSeed.Next(0,99999999)); return random.Next(min, max);

Hi, I am supposed to create a program that generates a random number and then asks the user to guess the number (1-100). The program tells the user if he guessed too high or too low. If he guessed right, it asks the user is he/she wants to play again. If the answer is yes, it generates a random number and asks the user to guess the number again. The user can exit if he enters 0. I have created the following code so far but it does not work....

I would like to be able to create a random number generator that produces evenly distributed random numbers up to given number. For example, I would like to pick a random number less than 100000, or between 0 and 99999 (inclusive). Further, the I want the range to be a variable. Concretely, I would like to create the following method: unsigned long Random( unsigned long num )

I had someone write a random number generator in C# (I am more of a VB programmer) and they came up with the following: public string GetRand(int count) { string number = ""; for (int i=0; i<count; i++) { Random Rnd = new Random(); number = number+Convert.ToString(Rnd.Next(0,9));

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
