random variables

[Zirclesoft]

hiya!

i was wondering is its possible to do random variables?

like, if a had 2 variables, min = 10 and max = 15,

then what i wanna do is make an event that
randomly chooses a value between the numerical values
of min and max, (10 - 15)

any ideas?

thnx a bunch!!

ran=1;
ran=math.round(math.random()*5+10);
min=ran;

hehe, i little explaination would be appreciated.

anyhow, tank you a bunch!

The code will make a random value between 10 and 15 for the variable min

If you want random value from the difference between min and max .........and add that to the min value......

mini=101;
maxi=152;
ran_value=maxi-mini;
ran=1;
end_value=math.round(math.random()*ran_value+mini) ;
trace(end_value);

This will get you a random number between 101 and 152 for example. ( the end_value variable ).


Note: min is a restricted word ( used by Flash for other functions ) so change as I did to mini and maxi.
