To return pseudo-random numbers.
Syntax
Random()
Type Returned:
Numeric
Description
It returns a value of the numeric type with decimals N(11.9) in the range 0 to 1. The seed can be indicated through the RSeed function. If it is not explicitly initialized before calling the Random function, then it will be automatically initialized with a different value every time the application is run.
Example
Do While <Condition>
...
&SesNro = Random() // Example: 0.11, 0.98, 0.54, etc.
...
EndDo
It generates N pseudo-random numbers. Every time the application is run, it generates a different sequence of numbers because the seed will always change.
