Rnd() values are changing everytime in ASP.NET

[CAReed]

As a former programmer of random number generators, I would have to believe that this person has no understanding of one. Yes, he may be wanting to use a seed to generate the same sequence, but since he's not using one means that he doesn't how to use one. This is too funny. It's almost worth the price of admission to Experts Exchange to see the responses.

In Grade 3 maths class I think the teacher said you cannot divide by 0 so I never have.

Pro tip - you can use the google cache to get the answers. If you hit an experts exchange result in google, click on "cached" to view the cached copy from google, which will include the answers. Lately they added some CSS to the page to hide these, but if you click on the "text only" link then you can find all the answers . Direct link to the answers for that question: http://209.85.173.132/search?q=cache:WxyHTS7gXW4J:www.experts-exchange.com/Web_Development/Miscellaneous/Q_22031739.html+http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web_Development/Miscellaneous/Q_22031739.html&hl=en&client=firefox-a&gl=au&strip=1[^] God I hate experts exchange.

You could just open the page and scroll all the way to the bottom. For some reason the always leave the answers down the bottom so I don't have to pay a cent :laugh: .

Awesome tip! Thanks! :D Feel like coding an app where you input the URL, and it loads from cache, and formats properly to look like the real site? :laugh:

There's a registration form somewhere on the site which allows you to make a free account and look at the answers here[^]. It's blocked for non-English visitors (redirect to premium signup page), so you may need to use a proxy (here)[^]

If you divide by zero, you actually break time.

Doing a google on something I've often ended up at (among others, notable CP :-O ) E-E... and thinking long and hard about joining them. After seeing their answers (and some others) I've decided to stick to CP ;) Thanks for the tip. /Jonas

Which is why he's asking the question. If he knew how to use one, he wouldn't have to ask. Cheers, Drew.

There's already a wealth of greasemonkey user scripts to unhide the answers and remove the crap from EE. It's so effective that I removed my EE filter from CustomizeGoogle.

if someone has a membership please tell us what is the response !

Chris, I think the guy wants to return the same value each time Rnd() is called based on a constant seed. The answer to his question is inside the Microsoft documentation[^]. Rnd[(number)] [If number is] Less than zero: The same number every time, using number as the seed. Best Wishes, -David Delaune

Only because he's the only one strong enough to roundhouse maths back into existence. Time sees that, and gets scared, then goes to live with some relatives out in California, where it lives as Prince.
