You are right, further complicated that every language handles
rand() a bit differently... what I have now is a 3 digit float
between 0.000 and 1.000, and if this is to be an int to avoid float
calculations, then perhaps 0 - 1000
<%
my $rand = int(rand() * 1000) / 1000;
for my $i (1..5) {
for my $j (1..2) {
my $var = $i+$j+$rand;
...

Thanks.
