Hi everybody,

A friend of mine and I want to develop a program that randomly
generates times tables for young kiddos.
So how do you generate random numbers (in C#)?

Hi,

have you got Visual Studio .Net? If so.. Help->Index->Random.

Otherwise, use class Random.

Use the System.Random class. Note that you should create a single instance
and then use that repeatedly - don't create a new instance every time you
want a new random number, or you'll get the same number if you try to get a
random number several times in quick succession. (The initial seed is based
on the current time.)
