Basic Rnd function SHOULD return pseudorandom value greater or equal than 0 and
LESS
than 1. So, 0 <= Rnd < 1 or [0; 1) interval.
In OpenOffice.org it returns value greater or equal than 0 and LESS OR EQUAL
than 1.
Code:
Sub TestRnd
tries& = 10000000
s% = 0
For i& = 1 To tries
If Rnd = 1 Then s = s + 1
Next
MsgBox s / tries
End Sub
Expected result: 0
Result: 3,28E-05 (or near because of random values).
This randomly breaks down an algorithms believing the Rnd value strictly LESS
than 1
with out of bound errors.
Same behaviour in OOo 3.3.0, 3.1.1, 2.4.3.
