"Get Random Real"

[Bribe]

How does GetRandomReal() work? To me, that would crash the editor with an infinite loop. Does it stop at a decimal place?

This is a native, I don't think that anyone know how it works. It HAS to stop at a decimal place, it's not realistic to be infinite.

Randomization is something used quite a bit in programming. There is nothing mysterious about it at all, it simply generates a random number and shows it to us as a real within the user-specified interval.

It will calculate a "random" real with however-many decimal places a real type variable has. I think its 4 or 5.

what do you place inside the ()??? it should be two reals separated by a ,

He wasn't actually referring to using it, just the function itself; at least from my perspective.

because he said that the editor is crashing when he uses it, I get the feeling that he isn't placing anything inside the ()... hehe... and I cannot think of any other reason that GetRandomReal would crash the editor...

Actually not, I was asking because I am working remotely (no access to the editor) and was curious about it.

use GetRandomReal(low,high) then.. ?

 

[Berb]

I win.
