Generate a random number in LabWindows 5.5

[nadster]

hi louis,

I was wondering if theres a way to limit the random number function to between 1 and 5 as a float value?

like for example i want to generate any random value of float type between 1 and 5

thanks

For random floats on the range [x, y], try

rand() / (RAND_MAX / (float)(y - x)) + x

Hope this helps.
