It's in the FAQ. Moreover, I do not know what "in the interval [y;x]" in the answer tries to say. Maybe there is a mistake? ;)

Code: Select all

#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
...
srand(time(NULL)); // set a seed number
...
int randombetween(int min, int max) {
/*
read the faq page for info about rand().
*/
    return rand()%(max-min+1)+min;
}
