Random Number Generator:

This is another new thing that you'll learn in C++ today. Today I show you how to create a program that acts as a random number generator and gives you a random number based on what the user inputs as the maximum value for the random number. So whether the number is 5 or 5,000,000, the program will be able to give you a random value. This is great practice for beginners with C++ and this tutorial should help further your knowledge about the basics of C++.
