actually result in the next() function returning any number within the
range of an integer. The component is meant to be used like this:
<cfset rng = createObject("component", "com.macromedia.util.Random)/>
<cfset rng.setBounds(1, 52)/>
<cfoutput>#rng.next()#</cfoutput>
You can also do this...
<cfset rng.setSeed(getTickCount())/>
<cfset rng.nextBoolean()/>
I think I would create in instance during your initialization routine
(probably in your Application.cfm file), stash the instance in a
persistent scope, and use it like this:
<cfoutput>#application.rng.next()#</cfoutput>
You can also reset the bounds at any time without having to create a
new instance.
