An elegant way to return random float between two numbers:
<?php
function random_float ($min,$max) {
return ($min+lcg_value()*(abs($max-$min)));
}
?>
lcg_value
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
lcg_value — 결합 선형 합동 생성기
설명
float lcg_value
( void
)
lcg_value()는 (0, 1) 범위의 모의 난수를 반환합니다. 2^31 - 85와 2^31 - 249 구간에서 두 개의 CG를 결합합니다. 이 함수의 주기는 두 소수의 곱과 일치합니다.
반환값
(0, 1) 범위의 모의 float 난수

Choose your weapon:
<?php
function mt_randf($min, $max)
{
return $min + abs($max - $min) * mt_rand(0, mt_getrandmax())/mt_getrandmax();
}
function lcg_randf($min, $max)
{
return $min + lcg_value() * abs($max - $min);
}
function randf($min, $max)
{
return $min + rand(0,getrandmax()) / getrandmax() * abs($max - $min);
}?>

Be warned, the function provided by mr dot joebert at gmail dot com has a serious tendency to return $min more often than anything else, especially when $min and $max are close. It also will never return $max if $min is negative. rok kralj gmail com's implementation does not have this problem, as it operates on the difference between $max and $min instead of $max itself.
