Hi,

Does anyone know how to create random numbers inbetween a specific range
- not by using the Randomizer class.
I vaguely remember some old C++ syntax that used the Rand() to produce a
random number between 0.0 and 0.1 then you would use '%' to get a
number, i.e.

number = Rand() % 6; - would give you a number between 0 and six

I'm not sure about the code above, its only a vague memory of how I used
to do it in C++.
