Hi,
just try out this function given below. it will return a rand num between
the given limits.
static UInt16 GetRandomNumber(UInt8 from, UInt8 to)
{
UInt16 num;
num = SysRandom(0)/(1+sysRandomMax / (to - from));
return (from+num);
}
if u want to get a rand num between 0-4 call this func as GetRandomNumber(0,
4);
Regards,
N.Pandiaraj
