#Random
Name: Produce a random number.

Format:  #Random(range!, dest!)

This command produces a random number and places it in a variable.  range! is the range of the random number.  For example, if range! were 100, then the random number would be between 1 and 100.

dest! is the numerical variable to which the number should be put.

Example:

* Show 5 random numbers.

#For (num!=1; num!<=5; num!=num!+1)

{

      #Random(100,my_number!)

      #Show(my_number!)

}

Umm... You should really try this technique that a lot of us try... it's called reading the help files. You can really learn a great deal.

No you can technically use it for boards.... well theoretically.

You can set up a way that will make random numbers within a given board and place tiles there. So you can technically place random chests in them....

of course it is only theoretical.
