Call it once for a. 1-20. Call it again for c, passing a as the lower bound. a through a+100. Problem for the user is to find b and remainder r. You could use that one random number routine for everything. Since you're allowing remainders you don't have to worry about the "evenly divisible" stuff. -- John
