Hi:

Does anyone know how to generate random numbers using assembly code?
I know how to do it in Basic and C, and want to know how to do it in assembly.

Thanks.

What do you need it for ?

if the project is driven by an external event (such as someone needs to push a button b4 something happens) then you can use that event to create a random number...
Set up a timer at the start of your program (W/O prescaling) and leave it running, and capture the timer value when someone presses the button, should be pretty random...

if it has to generate random numbers all by itself then i don't really have a clue ops: ... perhaps you should hack some of the code generated by the basic compiler to see how it works

Thankx folks.

There are various random number algorithms such as the monte-carlo, etc. You can also capture circuit noise and have it trigger something in your software to generate random numbers. Easier said than done, but it does work.
