    VBScript Program to round up a number

    I also had hard time to code the program to round a number in VBScript programming. But then I learnt about the in-built function of VBScript known as the Round() function. This is the function used to round a number in VBScript. Here is a program using VBScript to round up a number:
    HTML Code:
    <html>
    <body>
    
    <script type="text/vbscript">
    a = 37.273095
    b = 14.82649
    Round Up Value:document.write(Round(a))
    Round Up Value:document.write("<br /><br/>")
    Round Up Value:document.write(Round(b))
    </script>
    
    </body>
    </html>

    Random Numbers between 0 to 50

    The following program will help you to generate Random number in the range of 0 -50.
    HTML Code:
    <html>
    <body>
    
    <script type="text/vbscript">
    Randomize()
    temp=Int(50 * Rnd())
    document.write("A random number: <b>" & temp & "</b>")
    </script>
    
    </body>
    </html>
    The Rnd function will generate a number randomly which is supposed to be a positive number but between 0 and 1. This number is then multiplied to the end value to display random numbers as in the above programs we get random number between 0 to 50.

    Rnd( ) to get Random numbers

    To get a random number generated in VBScript we can make use of the Rnd(). This Rnd() function will provide you with pseudo-random number. This random number generated by Rnd() function is a value which is positive but cannot be greater the one. We can use this pseudo-random number and multiple with another value to get any pseudo-random number that is less then the provided value.

    Replacing String

    HTML Code:
    <Html>
    <Body>
    <Head>
    <Title>Replacing String</title>
    </Head>
    
    <Script type="text/vbscript">
    strng="Replace this"
    document.write(Replace(strng, "Replace", "Swap"))
    </Script>
    
    </Body>
    </Html>
    The code above is written for VB-scripting. This code works to replace a string from the given sentence. This is done by incorporating the Replace( ) function. You can use it to replace strings.

    Returning Random Number

    I had an assignment that asked for a program in VBscript that would return a random number. Here is how I coded the program:
    HTML Code:
    <Html>
    <body>
    
    <script type="text/vbscript">
    Randomize()
    Random Number document.write(Rnd())
    </script>
    
    </body>
    </Html>
    Use this code in your program to get randomly generated numbers.
