Description
nsRandom is a NSIS-plugin created by Leon Zandman that can generate random numbers.
Usage
nsRandom is a plugin wrapper around Borland Delphi's Random() function. It can generate random numbers in two ways:
- *Range-mode*Float-mode
Range-mode: In this mode nsRandom generates random numbers in the following range: 0 ≤ Random < Range, where Range is a positive number that has been pushed onto the stack. See the following example:
; Use random number from range: 0 <= Random < 100 ; Put range onto the stack Push "100" ; Get the random number nsRandom::GetRandom ; Take the generated number from the stack Pop $2
Float-mode: In this mode nsRandom generates random values lying between 0 and 1. You can activate this mode by putting a negative value for Range onto the stack. See the following example:
; Put negative range onto the stack (=float-mode) Push "-1" ; Get the random number nsRandom::GetRandom ; Take the generated number from the stack Pop $2
The distribution includes an example NSIS-script file that should explain how this plugin works.
nsRandom was created after some discussion in this forum thread.
