Return a random value between min and max. Note that if #0 > #1, the function will swap vars. If the random result is lower than min, it returns the min. Same for the max value.

/* Author: Tom_48_97 Description: Return a random value between min and max. Note that if #0 > #1, the function will swap vars. If the random result is lower than min, it returns the min.

Any other value will return a float Example of use: this setFuel ([0.2, 0.5] call tm4_fnc_random); this setPosATL [(getPosATL player select 0) + ([5, 10, "floor"] call bis_fnc_random), (getPosATL player select 1) + ([3, 7, "floor"] call bis_fnc_random), 0.1]; Returns: NUMBER - Integer or float */ private["_this", "_min", "_max", "_base", "_return"]; _min = [_this, 0, 0, [0]] call bis_fnc_param; _max = [_this, 1, 1, [0]] call bis_fnc_param; _base = toLower([_this, 2, "float", ["round", "floor", "ceil", "float"]] call bis_fnc_param); if !(typeName _min == typeName 0) exitWith { ["#0: Must be a NUMBER"] call bis_fnc_error; }; if !(typeName _max == typeName 0) exitWith { ["#1: Must be a NUMBER"] call bis_fnc_error; }; if (_min > _max) then { private ["_tmp1", "_tmp2"]; _tmp1 = _min; _tmp2 = _max; _max = _tmp1; _min = _tmp2; }; _return = random _max; if (_base == 'round') Then { _return = round(_return); }; if (_base == 'floor') Then { _return = floor(_return); }; if (_base == 'ceil' ) Then { _return = ceil(_return); }; if (_return < _min) Then { _return = _min + (random (_max - _min)); }; _return |
