I just tried "random 1e8" and "/ 1e8" and it seems to work for me. If it doens't for you that's a bug I should look at :)

Hello list,
I want to do a simple task : pick a random float in a defined range (let's say between 0.0 and 1.0). I know there are this kind of objects in external libraries (something like [randomF] if remember), but since the collapse of Pd-Extended, I generally prefer to make vanilla abstractions.
The two solutions i foresee are :
solution #1 :
[random 1e+06] | [/ 1e+06]
but this way, it doesn't use the full floating-point resolution ?... and going over that range (like 1e_07) will result in errors (outputs 0) I guess because of floating-point complexity.
# solution #2 :
[noise~] | [snapshot~]
but this won't work if DSP/audio is turned off.
so I wondered if there are other vanilla and efficient solutions? ...or if I just have to get the external from deken... ? :)
thanks,
