rand

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

rand — Generate a random integer

Popis

int rand ([ int $min ], int $max )

If called without the optional min , max arguments rand() returns a pseudo-random integer between 0 and RAND_MAX. If you want a random number between 5 and 15 (inclusive), for example, use rand (5, 15).

Note: On some platforms (such as Windows) RAND_MAX is only 32768. If you require a range larger than 32768, specifying min and max will allow you to create a range larger than RAND_MAX, or consider using mt_rand() instead.

Note: Počínajúc PHP 4.2.0 nie je potrebné štartovať generátor náhodných čísel s srand() alebo mt_srand(), nakoľko sa tak učiní automaticky.

Parametre

min

The lowest value to return (default: 0)

max

The highest value to return (default: RAND_MAX)

Vrátené hodnoty

A pseudo random value between min (or 0) and max (or RAND_MAX, inclusive).

ChangeLog

Verzia Popis
Since 3.0.7 In versions before 3.0.7 the meaning of max was range . To get the same results in these versions the short example should be rand (5, 11) to get a random number between 5 and 15.
