Join them; it only takes a too many arguments to function excel minute: Sign up random(int) and randomize() in C up vote 2 down vote favorite I want to generate pseudo-random integers in a given range without introducing the skew that results from the use of rand()%N. I have read about the too many arguments to function arduino functions random() and randomize() that seem to substitute the rand() and srand() functions but returning directly an integer in the range given as the parameter of the random() function. In both cases, the functions seem to be in the stdlib.h library. The problem I have is that I cannot make these functions work somehow. Here's a small test code I made to test the functions. #include
Too Many Arguments To Function Clone
test.c it gives an error test.c: In function ‘main’:
test.c:6: error: too many arguments to function ‘random’ As far as I know the function random() only takes one argument which is an integer to determine the range of the numbers given. What am I doing wrong? EDIT: It seems that those correspond to some TurboC old things. So the question is now, how to make "truly" random integers in the sense that they are not skewed? My approach is (as suggested by Vatine) #include
am trying to make a function that randomizes the chance of

May 8, 2015 at 4:25pm UTC Ganado (743) The random number generator that rand() uses has already been seeded with the current time on line 6. rand(), as show in http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdlib/rand/, takes in zero parameters and generates a random integer. Doing int a = rand()%20; will make a be a random number in range [0, 19]. Last edited on May 8, 2015 at 4:27pm UTC May 8, 2015 at 4:26pm UTC lukecplusplus (15) Thank you for the quick response.
