I'm doing a little programming which requires the use of some random numbers. Basically I add a random value at one stage, and subtract it a bit later. Something like this pseudo-code (where "x" is an existing variable):
set rand_value <- (random) set new_value <- x + rand_value ... do stuff ... set new_value <- new_value - rand_value All values may be considered Reals. I tried to do this in Typed Racket, where x was of type "Real" and got errors about mismatched types: "(random)" produces a "flonum". I was also using "set!" for the assignment of the random value, which I understand to be poor practice: how would I do something like the above in a more "rackety" manner?
