Defined in header <experimental/random>
template <class IntType> IntType randint(IntType a, IntType b);		(library fundamentals TS v2)

Generates a random integer in the closed interval [a, b].

Parameters

a, b

-

integer values specifying the range

Return value

A random integer i in the closed interval [a, b], produced using a thread-local instance of std::uniform_int_distribution<IntType> invoked with the per-thread random number engine.

Remarks

If IntType is not one of short, int, long, long long, unsigned short, unsigned int, unsigned long, or unsigned long long, the program is ill-formed.

The behavior is undefined if a > b.
