random @range
if range is 0-1, shouldn't that include 1?
Max Patch
Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.
you need one more at max limit
arguments vs attributes
although I guess the concept is kind of bothersome.
have to add 1
I also find that weird.
when i need this kind of stuff i rather use expr.
the "float mode" in random is - to my knowledge - nothing but (another) scaling after all, so it could make sense to not use a range to the theoretical max.
you can find such patterns of pseudo-normalized float ranges from 0 - 0.992 or 0.996 also in jitter and photohop, where it they help to switch between 32 bit and 8 bit colors resolution.
