问题:
I'm trying to write a program that generates a pseudorandom numbers using a seed. However, I'm running into problems.
I get this error
39 C:\Dev-Cpp\srand_prg.cpp void value not ignored as it ought to be
Using this code
#include <iostream> #include <iomanip> #include <sstream> #include <limits> #include <stdio.h> using namespace std ; int main(){ int rand_int; string close ; close == "y" ; cout << endl << endl ; cout << "\t ___________________________________" << endl ; cout << "\t| |" << endl ; cout << "\t| Pseudorandom Number Game! |" << endl ; cout << "\t|___________________________________|" << endl ; cout << endl << endl ; while ( close != "y" ){ rand_int = srand(9); cout << rand_int << endl ; cout << " Do you wish to exit the program? [y/n] " ; cin >> close ; } }
回答1:
srand
doesn't return a random number, it just reseeds the random number generator. Call rand
afterwards to actually get a number:
srand(9); rand_int = rand();
回答2:
srand() generates a seed (which is the number used to initialize the random number generator) and must be called once per process. rand() is the function you are looking for.
If you don't know what seed to pick, use the current time:
srand(static_cast<unsigned int>(time(0))); // include <ctime> to use time()
回答3:
call it this way.
srand(9); rand_int = rand();
回答4:
srand returns void function and doesn't return a value.
Here you can see more about it. You'll just have to call srand(9) and get the value of rand() after that, like J-16 SDiZ pointed out, who will be upvoted for this :)
回答5:
You're using srand
incorrectly, that particular function is for setting the seed for later calls to rand
.
The basic idea is to call srand
once with an indeterminate seed, then call rand
continuously to get a sequence of numbers. Something like:
srand (time (0)); for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) cout << (rand() % 10);
which should give you some random numbers between 0 and 9 inclusive.
You generally don't set the seed to a specific value unless you're testing or you want an identical sequence of numbers for some other reason. You also don't set the seed each time before you call rand
since you're likely to get the same number repeatedly.
So your particular while
loop would be more like:
srand (9); // or use time(0) for different sequence each time. while (close != "y") { // for 1 thru 9 inclusive. rand_int = rand() % 9 + 1; cout << rand_int << endl; cout << "Do you wish to exit the program? [y/n]? "; cin >> close; }
