algorithm	string	false

Examples

Tag Example

The following example calls the Randomize function to seed the random number generator and generates 10 random numbers.

<bx:set r = randomize( 7, "SHA1PRNG" ) > 
 <bx:set local.MYINT = 1 > 
 <bx:set local.MYINT2 = 999 > 
<!--- Generate and display the random number. ---> 
 <bx:output><p><b> 
 RandRange returned: #randRange( local.MYINT, local.MYINT2, "SHA1PRNG" )# 
 </bx:output></b></p>  

Script Example

<bx:script>
	bytes = [];
	bytecount = 32;
	arrayResize( bytes, byteCount );
	for( i = 1; i <= byteCount; i++ ) {
		bytes[ i ] = randRange( -128, 127, "SHA1PRNG" );
	}
</bx:script>
 
 <bx:dump var="#bytes#"/>  

Additional Examples

writeDump( randRange( 25, 125, "bxmX_COMPAT" ) );
writeDump( randRange( 100, 500, "SHA1PRNG" ) );
