Random number guessing game.....

[axipher]

thats nice, i wish the RND function could be used like this

Code:

num = RND(x1 to x2), Step x

i remember one program that u could use to program basuc that worked like this, it was nice, u could go like

Code:

num = RND(0 to 10), Step 2

and it would be a 0,2,4,6,8, or 10, iot worked great

now while were talking about math functions, is there anyway to round a number to no decimal places in qb?

INT()

[yetifoot]

Code:

Declare FUNCTION int.rnd(base1 as long, base2 as long) as long

FUNCTION int.rnd(base1 as long, base2 as long) as long
    Return int((rnd*base2)+base1)
END FUNCTION

looking at this code posted i tested and it appears incorrect ie

int.rnd(0, 5) should return number in range 0, 1 , 2 ,3, 4, 5

but it will never return 5

This is waht i use requires #include "crt.bi"

Code:

Function GetRand(nmin As uInteger, nmax As uInteger)As uInteger
  GetRand = Int((nmax - nmin + 1) * (rand() / RAND_MAX) + nmin)
End Function

however you can use this also, this is the native fb version, not sure which is faster

Code:

Function GetRand2(nmin As uInteger, nmax As uInteger) As uInteger
  GetRand2 = Int((nmax - nmin + 1) * Rnd + nmin)
End Function

EDIT : sorry just saw im in a QB forum , here is QB one

Code:

Function GetRand2(nmin As Long, nmax As Long) As Long
  GetRand2 = Int((nmax - nmin + 1) * Rnd + nmin)
End Function

INT()

i was playing around with a code i dled and figured out that i can use

Code:

PRINT USING "###"; number

it works fine for numbers from -999 to 999 which is wat i want, its for stats and exp in an rpg

I suggest you read ALL of Vic's tutorials, which can be found on this site...

Whatever happened to Vic, anyway? I read his tutorials about 2 years ago. He taught me almost everything I know about programming in any form of BASIC.

Isn't vic "v1ctor"? That would be the guy who made and is still updating FB...

I really don't think so, Aga. Although we should really ask him. Vic Luce, AKA radiohands made tutorials that taught me loads. Although he disappeared by the time I got involved in the community.
