random and srand in c++ code example
Example 1: random in c++
v1 = rand() % 100; // v1 in the range 0 to 99
v2 = rand() % 100 + 1; // v2 in the range 1 to 100
v3 = rand() % 30 + 1985; // v3 in the range 1985-2014
Example 2: random number in c++
/* rand example: guess the number */
#include <stdio.h> /* printf, scanf, puts, NULL */
#include <stdlib.h> /* srand, rand */
#include <time.h> /* time */
int main ()
{
int iSecret, iGuess;
/* initialize random seed: */
srand (time(NULL));
/* generate secret number between 1 and 10: */
iSecret = rand() % 10 + 1;
do {
printf ("Guess the number (1 to 10): ");
scanf ("%d",&iGuess);
if (iSecret<iGuess) puts ("The secret number is lower");
else if (iSecret>iGuess) puts ("The secret number is higher");
} while (iSecret!=iGuess);
puts ("Congratulations!");
return 0;
}
