OK, I'm being silly, this is the correct version of the code that compiles and runs.
Thanks very much vijayan! Now when it runs I get 176 numbers printed out in sequence... How can I get more control over how many it prints out, because I'll be wanting to do up to 10,000, and possibly more? Is it by playing around with line 12?

the parameter passed to the function is the number of ascending random integers to be printed.
modify line 24 to
generate_ascending_number(1024);
to print 1024 numbers.
modify line 24 to
generate_ascending_number(1024);
to print 1024 numbers.

Hmmm. I've put 1024 in there, and it sure prints out a lot of numbers, which might well be 1024 numbers. But when I put in 10, it prints out 98 numbers, and when I put in 5, it prints out 50 numbers. I've tried this more than once now... any ideas why this is happening please?

you forgot to do
--required
in the for loop (line 14-16)
note: the loop could be made more efficient by adding if(required==0) break ;

Yea you're right, now it works. Thanks so much, you've been amazing. But may I please ask a couple more things: "--required" decrements that variable so that the number entered into the function is the number of numbers printed out right?
And how can I adjust the range pls?I tried putting a variable with a smaller number in the place of 'available' in line 13 & it compiled, but when i ran the program I got an 'Arithmetic Exception'. Sorry to keep hassling like this.

Again, apologies, so embarassing, I solved the 2nd qstn, I have to use the same value in lines 11 & 13 if I'm going to use something different from 'available'.
Thanks v much for all your help vijayan, it's very much appreciated!

this fills an array, instead of printing out the random number; but the idea is the same
