Help/Support How would I be able to return a randomly generated number within a specific range?

[Guest]

I'm thinking of updating the BTD Battles hack to have random numbers generated for the mediallions so the values aren't so big. People have caught on I would use MSHook of course.

 

Basically, I would want the range of the number to be from 100-10000. Thanks

So it would be like a random generated amount?

Just pick a number lol the string would be <random> but idk about range

[Ky1e 3k 8 9.3.1]

#include <stdlib.h>

//...
int r = arc4random_uniform(10000);

 

This would set it as a random number up to 10000.

 There is a method to set a minimum number but idk what it is. it's like 8 lines though.

@ How did you know this?

[DeathScripts 10.7k iPad 4 8.4.3]

 

#include <stdlib.h>

...

int r = (rand() % 10000)+100;

This way it will always return values between 100 and 10000, this is the method without using the seed, I don't know how to use the seed in obj-c

Nice copy&paste ...

But yes arc4random is the easiest way and doesn't need a seeder because it initializes itself

If you want a value from 100-10000 you would need

return arc4random() % 100) +10000;
