I'm wondering how I can set the min/max values of a random object, on the fly via two hsliders? I am already using the minimum and maximum objects to determine the absolute min/max values of the two hsliders. Now I need to use the outputs of minimum and maximum to set the min/max values for the random object...

p.s. Sorry for so many posts, I have to build a patch for tomorrow...

I have now found a solution via the scale object...

I take you need to get a number between two values? If so, give this a

try... It'll only work for integers. Floats are a little trickier.

The stock random has a fixed minimum of zero. Also note that one of 

the most common errors in the world is to think that you are setting 

the maximum value of random. You set the number of different integers 

random can create, which run from 0 .. n-1.

If you want a random number generator with inlets for min and max, 

try lp.tata from the Litter Power Starter Pack. Downloadable from the 

You can patch to get random to do what you want, but lp.tata is an 

industrial-strength random number generator. And if you want values 

between -25 and 37 it does the thinking for you.

faster than you'd need to read all the answers...

Have a nice walk in the sun for the rest of your deadline... ;-)

don't for the gary lee's package. I know he mentioned it above, bu t that's what u want.

Random number generation...
