Random: 0.0 to 1.0 (Expression Function Reference)
The Function > Random > Random: 0.0 to 1.0 command in the expression editor inserts the token rand_0_1([<seed>]) at the insertion point in the editing pane. This token generates a random number between 0.0 and 1.0 at each frame. Replace the dummy argument as follows:
[<seed>] |
Replace with an expression for a seed value used to sow the random number generator. This argument is optional. If you supply a seed, pseudo-random numbers are generated for each frame. These numbers are the same each time you play back the scene. If you do not supply a seed, the generated values are closer to being truly random. However, they will be different each time you play back the scene. |
Example 1
rand_0_1()
Generates a random number between 0.0 and 1.0 at each frame. The sequence is different each time you play the scene back.
Example 2
randBool(17)
Generates a random number between 0.0 and 1.0 at each frame. The sequence is the same each time you play the scene back.
