C++ :: Generate Random Numbers Within Specific Range?
Jun 5, 2014
So, there has got to be an easier way to generate random numbers within a specific range. Here is the code that I have been using, for a range of 1-6:
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
[Code]....

You are to write a C++ program to generate random integers in the range [ LOW = 1, HIGH = 10000 ] and to store them in a vector < int > of size VEC_SIZE = 250. Then, sort the contents of the vector (in ascending order) and display it on stdout.
To sort the contents of a vector, use the sort ( ) function from the STL. In addition to the main ( ) routine, implement the following subroutines in your program:
• void genRndNums ( vector < int >& v ) : This routine generates VEC_SIZE integers and puts them in vector v. Initializes the random number generator (RNG) by calling the function srand ( ) with the seed value SEED = 1, and generates random integers by calling the function rand ( ).
• void printVec ( const vector < int >& v ) : This routine displays the contents of vector v on stdout, printing exactly NO_ITEMS = 12 numbers on a single line, except perhaps the last line. The sorted numbers need to be properly aligned on the output. For each printed number, allocate ITEM_W = 5 spaces on stdout.
Programming Notes:
• You are not allowed to use any I/O functions from the C library, such as scanf or printf. Instead, use the I/O functions from the C++ library, such as cin or cout.
• Let v be a vector of integers, then the call: sort ( v.begin ( ), v.end ( ) ) sorts the elements of v in ascending order. The detailed description of the sort ( ) routine can be found on the course web site and in the course textbook.
• Execute the srand ( ) function only once before generating the first random integer with the given seed value SEED. The rand ( ) function generates a random integer in the range [ 0, RAND_MAX ], where the constant value RAND_MAX is the largest random integer returned by the rand ( ) function and its value is system dependent. To normalize the return value to a value in the range [ LOW, HIGH ], execute: rand ( ) % ( HIGH – LOW + 1 ) + LOW.

My program behaves weird... I wanted to generate 10 random numbers from 1 to 100 each of them bigger than previous, using the while loop and function that returns a random number in specified range.
When I run the program, I get numbers much bigger than 100, even negative number, and numbers are same every time I run the program.
Code:
#include <ctime>#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int range(int low, int high);

I'm trying to generate random numbers so that I can assign people to teams. So far I have come up with this
Code:
int generateTeam(){
int i, teamNumber, c, n;
for (c = 0; c <= 5; c++) {
n = rand()%100 + 1;
}
[code]....
}//end generateTeam I'm not sure how to make it so that I can exclude the previous random number when generating the next one. As an example, I have 22 students and I get the number 19. Now I can't have 19 again because that guy already has it.

The program is to generate random numbers to a file and will have one integer parameter, Open a file and then using a loop write the required number of random numbers to the file. Scale the random numbers from 1 and 100 inclusive. Then closes the file .The last function will read the numbers in the file into your program. so far i have
Code: #include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
#include <ctime>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>

I am trying to generate 3 random numbers between 1 and 6 using a function called generate_rand. but everytime im having an error : no oprators "<<" matches these operands and the last error was :end of file found before the left brace
my program is the following :

#include<cstdlib>
using namespace std;

srand (time(NULL));
for(int i=0; i<N; i++) {
points[i].x=(rand()%(32767-(-32767)))+(-32767);
points[i].y=(rand()%(32767-(-32767)))+(-32767);
cout<<"x="<<points[i].x<<endl;
cout<<"y="<<points[i].y<<endl;
}
Im trying to generate random numbers between -32767 and +32767, where im going wrong, this code generates only negative numbers

I am trying to parallelize some of my code with OpenMP. When I switch to using multiple threads I start getting random numbers that are out of the expected range.
Here is a small example:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include </usr/local/include/gsl/gsl_rng.h>
#include </usr/local/include/gsl/gsl_randist.h>
int main() {
int mySeed=0;
const gsl_rng_type *T;
T = gsl_rng_ranlxs2;
gsl_rng *r_1 ;
[Code] .....
gsl_rng_uniform should only output number in the range [0,1) but with multiple threads it outputs larger number as well.

We had to generate random, unique numbers in the range [1,15]. But running the program for several times showed a bug: It wouldn't always generate a new number for every repeated number. I can't figure out the problem, especially since it works half the time and I can't figure out what's making it work some times and not others.
bool flag1 = true, flag2 = true, flag3 = true;
int i, j = 1;
int[] A = new int[11];
Random rnd = new Random();
A[0] = rnd.Next(1, 15);
Console.WriteLine("1. = " + A[0]);

My program generates an array of random numbers. I want to then search a specific number within the array. If the number is in the array then a message apopears on the console saying that its there. I'm using the binary search algorithm to do this.
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
int size;
int getSize() { return size; }

I am just starting out programming and have an assignment due in the near future. the problem is I cant seem to figure it out. I started it already but got stuck cant seem to figure it out. Here is the assignment.
Create a program that will generate a list of 200 random numbers (ranging from 1-1000) and determine the medium, mode, and average of the list of numbers. Have the program display the original list ant then display the list in ascending and descending order on the screen.

X and Y are numbers
For example: how many 2 or/and 5 are inside range of 0 to 30.
for or: there are 8 (2,5,12,15,22,25)
for and: there is only one (25).

i have to find 2 random values between a range, lets say from 0-3 i have to find all the possible combinations between this range like (0,0),(0,1)...etc But, it has to be RANDOM and the same combination cannot repeat it self(obviously).

I'm trying to write a program that generates a random number between 50 and 200. I made a program that generates random numbers, but how to make those random numbers be in-between 50 and 200. Any example of a program that generates random numbers that are confined in-between certain values?

I just can't seem to get this right. What I want to happen is when the program runs a random word should pop up.
I have included my code. I'm not sure by putting tag around my code.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;

so I'm creating a program that generates random sentences with structs..I'm trying to use structs and and create 4 different groupings article, noun, verb, and preposition. Then I'm trying to use "r = rand() % ;" to randomly pick one one word from each group to make a sentence. this is what i have
Code:
typedef enum article {
the = 1, a, one, some, any
} article;
typedef enum noun {
boy = 1, girl, dog, town, car
}

I want to print different color names for "nb " times . I get the number " nb " from the user or from text file . if " nb = 3 " then I want to print any 3 different color names which means that I may print ( red , green , blue ) for example . and if " nb=5 " then I have to print any five different color names ( pink , blue , black , red ,white ) fore example .
Note : " nb " may be a large number ( 17 for example ). How can I do this ?

So I have to generate a random number between 1 and 6 and then store that same random number into an int variable. Eg, if the random number is 4, that must be stored into int i.

I'm currently working on assignment which requires to generate a random permutation of the first N integers. For example, if N = 4, one possible answer is {3,1,2,4} without duplicates. {3,3,2,4} is not correct
to fill a[4], generate random numbers until you get one that is not already in a[0], a[1], ..., a[n-1]. for a[0] whatever random number you generate can be put in it. So here is my code. It seem to works but sometime it give duplicates.
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
