    easy way is to mask results

    if you mask with 3F you will get a max of 63 combination. may few lines of if then else can do the rest of the job....

    RANDOM MyRandomVar
    MyRandomVar=MyRandomVar & $3F

    if MyRandomVar>39 then
    MyRandomVar=MyrandomVar-39
    endif

    that's it!!!

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
