But anywho ...
Code:
    RANDOM   RandVar
    Result = RandVar ** 7 + 1
This is an older post I searched because I need to generate a random number and saw you can do it with a word variable. Like this fella, I need a smaller number.

I'm having a hard time grasping what is going on with Result = ** 7 + 1
Huh ?

Saw --
** Returns the high 16 bits of a 16-bit multiply result

But even that isn't making sense to me.

Has there been any updates to random where you can apply it to more than a word? -thanks
