Hi, guys! After a bit of number-quenching and guesswork, I finally came up with my function that takes a random number from rand() and does some maths to make the from and to function work! It supports negative numbers, too. And also a mixture of negative and positive.
Here is the code:
function Random(from, to) return (rand()*(to+1-from)) / (RAND_MAX+1)+from;Purely tested.
Hope you like it!
How And Where to use it Please Post An Example

When you want a random number. Where else would you use it.

note this is my idea if you want to use it please give me credit
function onPlayerCommand(player, cmd, arguments)
{
if(cmd=="snatchkeys")
{
if(/*playerisnearanotherplayer(player)*/==null) ClientMessage("[#FFFFFF]You Are Not near AnOther Player!!");
else if(Random(1,255) != 128) ClientMessage("[#FFFFFF]You Failed To Snatch A Keys!!");
else
{
//...
}
}
}
Note: The message grammar is made funny on purpose to mess with you.

Thanks for sharing, but does anyone know how I can get a random number from a selection of numbers? Only (12,33,93)

Put them in an array and then select a random index from that array:
local rnums = [23, 56, 543, 4354, 343, 5897, 564, 425];
print(rnums[Random(0, rnums.len())]);
print(rnums[Random(0, rnums.len())]);
print(rnums[Random(0, rnums.len())]);
