Random (function)

Returns a measure value between 0 and 1, non-inclusive. Since this function uses the current system time when run inside the

printer, it returns a true random value. On the computer, however, the function uses the current data page as its seed to

ensure the returned value is constant when you navigate from page to page on your document.

Syntax

random() measure value

Argument

None

Code Sample Example

Example
