Generate a random number Outputs random numbers within the range between 0 and 1 less than the argument specified. Cycling '74 Max Math Causes Random Number Output TEXT_HERE Causes Random Number Output TEXT_HERE Random Number Output TEXT_HERE Initial limit Sets an initial limit to the random output. If an int, the output will always be between 0 and one less than this maximum limit. If a float, the output will be between 0 and the maximum limit. If there is no argument, the limit is initially set to 1, which causes random to output 0 whenever it receives a bang. Random generator seed value A second argument is used to set a "seed" value for the random generator. If no argument is specified, the time value will be used to initialize the seed. Output a random number In left inlet: Sends out a randomly generated number between 0 and one less than its maximum limit. Set the maximum limit In right inlet: The number is stored as the maximum limit for the random output. The output will always be between 0 and one less than this maximum limit. Set the maximum limit (floating-point) In right inlet: The number is stored as the maximum limit for the random output. Additionally floatoutput will be enabled and the object will generate floating-point output Set the range In right inlet: The numbers are used to set the range of the object. The range can be any two numerical values, including negative values. If the range contains a floating-point value, floatoutput will be enabled, and the object will generate floating-point output. Use Bad Old Random Number Generator Enable/disable classic mode, which uses the bad old random number generator. Default is 0 (disabled). Generate Floating-Point Values Enable/disable float output using the current range. Range of Generated Values The range can be any two numerical values, including negative values. If the range contains a floating-point value, floatoutput will be enabled, and the object will generate floating-point output. Random Seed The seed is now an attribute, permitting users to acquire automatically-awarded seed values via an object such as getattr. When a bang is received in the left inlet, random generates a random number between 0 and one less than its maximum limit.
