Dear Boriss,
I mentioned the issue before with random numbers, but here we go again:
never use modulo, use divison instead for scaling to the right range of
numbers. mod tends to not deliver good sequence of random numbers!
Sorry, I was not aware of this problem. thanks for pointing it out. But
is it just related to Mozart? or is it a mathematical problem in general?
cheers

Subject: Re: Generating Random Numbers
Hi Alan,
if you are working in the OPI, there is no need for importing that
library. Go to the Oz menu, and then Open Compiler Panel. In the
Environment you will see everything that is already load.
To generate a random number try
{Browse {OS.rand}}
that will be a random integer.
To generate a random number between 0 and 10, the usual stuff is
{Browse {OS.rand} mod 10}
cheers
