Here are some useful Lingo codes for generating different types of random numbers:


Any random number

random(x) (replace x with a number to show the maximum amount)

Between 0 and 10

random(11) - 1

Between 50 and 100

random(51) + 49

Decimals between 0 and 1

(random(101) - 1)/100.0

To generate floating point numbers and add a random interger

random(x) + (random(101) - 1)/100.0 (replace x with a number)

Hope these come in useful to people ^_^
