C++ :: How To Create CPP File That Will Handle Random Number Generators

Jul 23, 2014

How to create .cpp file (new class) that will handle all the random number generators (<random> library) that main could possibly access. When I looked for a way how to implement random generators the examples were always in the main function or in a class in the main.cpp (with no header file and the generator was not seeded as I imagine it should be = only once in a program).

Questions follows after this malfunction code.

main.cpp
#include "randomizer.h"
int main() {
Randomizer randObject(0, 10, 125); //Set bounds and seed generator
int mainVar = randObject.getRandInt(); //Store newly generated random number for future work

[Code] .....

1) So I think that I should somehow declare these generators and distribution in the header file. Is it like declaring int a;?

I tried writing std::default_random_engine defGen; into the header file which only silenced compiler's errors but defGen wasn't seeded.

I have seen some examples using auto a = randInt(defGen); (or maybe with the use of auto a = std::bind.... But what does auto represent? I can't use it in the header file.

2) Can I ensure that the randObject is seeded only once? If for examle I need randObject2 with different boundMax, can I still use the same defGen which was seeded the first time? That should ensure better "randomness" through the program, shouldn't it?

3) Is there better way (and easy too) to "interface" random number generators? The class in the end should provide "get" function to acces int, double, bool, signed/unsigned... or some other specialities like random prime numbers, etc.

If it is anyhow related I am using Code::Blocks IDE with GCC compiler (4.7.1)

Visual C++ :: Passing File Handle To DLL?

May 6, 2013

I write a small application and using the following API to open the file:

hHandle = CreateFile(lpszFileName, GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE,
NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);

Then I pass the hHandle to a DLL exported function, in that function, I will call

DWORD dwFlags = 0;

ASSERT(GetHandleInformation(hFile,&dwFlags) != 0)

to check if the handle is valid. However, the assert fails. And I use GetLastError to get the error code 6, which means invalid handle.

What is the problem with my codes?

C++ :: Random Number Generator - Count How Many Times Each Number Shows Up

Sep 26, 2012

I'm running a game online and designing a program to generate Enemy Stats. Basically, it's supposed to generate 25 numbers between 0 and 7(to represent 8 Attributes on a 25 Point Buy system) and count how many times each number shows up.

Here's what the code looks like:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int Generate() {
int r= rand();
int s= r%7;
[Code] ....

And here's two outputs.

1: Code:

12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 12133089220 Stats[0]= 25 Stats[1]= 0 Stats[2]= 0 Stats[3]= 0 Stats[4]= 0 Stats[5]= 0 Stats[6]= 0 Stats[7]= 0 Stats[8]= 0 Disallowed system call: SYS_socketcall

2: Code:

14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 14787708434 Stats[0]= 0 Stats[1]= 0 Stats[2]= 0 Stats[3]= 0 Stats[4]= 25 Stats[5]= 0 Stats[6]= 0 Stats[7]= 0 Stats[8]= 0 Disallowed system call: SYS_socketcall

Note that the number does change, but only between runs.

C++ :: Random Number Generator Stuck On 1 Number?

Nov 21, 2013

I am working with C++ in Visual Studio. It's my first semester doing anything like this ever. Still, I am embarrassed that I am having trouble with this simple "coin flipping" program. The user tells the program how many times to "flip the coin" & then the program tells the user the results of each flip. You'll see I am randomly generating a 1 or a 2 within the function coinFlip to represent heads or tails. However, the problem is that if the user wants more than one coin flip, the "random" number stays the same for all of them, resulting in all heads or all tails. I am thinking this is an issue with the for loop that I have within the function coinFlip.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;

C++ :: Create Two Vectors With 10 Elements And Input Random Numbers

Feb 9, 2014

I can't compile this code as I am at work and the computers are security protected, So i''l have to wait until i get home to test this, but I am pretty sure I am wrong. The problem is I have to create two vectors with 10 elements and input random numbers into it, then pick one of the elements of the second vector at random and append it to an element from the first vector at random. This has to be done 10 times and the I am assuming i have to print the 10 results. This is what I have:

#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
vector<int> random (10);

C/C++ :: Random Number Is Always 41 Or 42

Nov 11, 2014

When I run this program it always generates the number 41 or 42. Why is this? Even if I add the code

magic = rand()%100 + 1;

to specify a range of 1 to 100 it's still always 41 or 42.

This is exactly the same code my book uses just without the cout << magic statement

C/C++ :: Random Number Conundrum

Nov 3, 2014

I've been having 3 days worth of difficulties with a part of my code for a moving-a-robot-around-blocks problem.

No error messages; it runs, it just, sadly, isn't doing what I want it to do.

When I isolate the random-number generating part of the code, it works just fine and give me numbers 0-7. However, when I put those random numbers into another functions to use them as x and y coordinates in the matrix (in order to randomly position 10 blocks, represented by the number 10), and then go to print the matrix (which should be all zeros except for 10 100s), I get a large random number in each position.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int getXCoordinates() //this function gets random x-coordinates in matrix {
int x;
x=rand()%8; // random number 0-7

C# :: Random Number To 70 Billion

Aug 13, 2014

So in C#, I'm trying to create a random number between 0 and 70billion. However, Random() doesn't work because the value is Long. I've looked at a bunch of solutions online, but it seemed like they weren't allowing values on the low range. I also saw some bit-shifting stuff, but not sure if thats the best way and I don't quite understand how to do it.

C# :: Saving And Using Random Number?

ImageList.Add("Assets/Images/Image_0.jpg");
ImageList.Add("Assets/Images/Image_1.jpg");
ImageList.Add("Assets/Images/Image_2.jpg");

[Code] .....

The problem is that It generates a random number that can be the same as the last time. So I figured out, that I need to save my random number so I can use it later, as a if statement.

If saved number == r then it generates a new number.

C++ :: Modulus And Random Number Generation?

Apr 13, 2014

I am making a random number generator. I have fixed all issues except for one. I am supposed to ask the user for how many digits the user wants the numbers to have. How many numbers does the user want. Then randomly generate numbers according to what the user entered. So if the user said 2 digits and wanted 4 numbers then it would output 4 random numbers in the range of 10 to 99.

My notes from class show this working correctly. And it does work correctly. But I don't understand the math here or how the modulus effects it. I was able to get 1 and 2 digits to work but once I get to 5 it doesn't generate numbers correctly. it will only generate number s

Code: int min =1;
int max = 9;int number1 = rand();
cout << number1 % max + min << " "; h

Here is the 3 digit code I have. I also need to figure out how to make it unique so no number generates more then once. I think the issue may be that the numbers are not unique and it is generating the same number and that is somehow effecting the numbers it is outputting. It is either that or my math is wrong.

Code:
if (intLength == 5) {
for (int i = 0; i<intQuantity; i++) {
