Generate random number in a range [0, n) in C?

Question

Looking to make a really simple random number generator method in C. The numbers should be between 0 and 24 and can be for example 14.5f.

Any help would be great, thanks

Answer 1

You can use C's built in random number generator to get an integer between 0 and 30 thousand something like this:

`srand(time(NULL));
    int x= rand();`

You would just need to do some division to get a decimal number instead of and integer.
