(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
Show largest possible random value
int mt_getrandmax ( void )
Returns the maximum value that can be returned by a call to mt_rand().
Returns:
Returns the maximum random value returned by a call to mt_rand() without arguments, which is the maximum value that can be used for its max
parameter without the result being scaled up (and therefore less random).
Examples:
Calculate a random floating-point number
<?php function randomFloat($min = 0, $max = 1) { return $min + mt_rand() / mt_getrandmax() * ($max - $min); } var_dump(randomFloat()); var_dump(randomFloat(2, 20)); ?>
The above example will output something similar to:
float(0.91601131712832) float(16.511210331931)
