How do I generate a random number?
The simplest way and a method that will suffice for most uses is to use the rand function, which does not need to be seeded in recent versions of PHP.
It is standardly passed the min and max values you want to get a number between, for instance:
<?php
$random = rand(1,100); echo "$random";
?>
This will print a number between 1 and 100 to the screen.
