how to use generate random numbers
 

Dear all
i have to do the exercise. The check boxes have 5 items: item 1, item2,..., item 5. Each item have one value. These values is in the range from 500 to 600.
There are 5 variables x, y, z, p, q.
The connstant number is 1800
When 3 items are checked, such as item 1 item 2, item 3, the program will generate x,y,z. And
item 1 * x+ item2*y+item3*z=1800
The same if 4 and 5 items are checked.
If 1 or 2 items are checked, the program will alert error.

I cannot do this exercise. I am waiting for anyone's help.
Thanks alot.

secondly, to solve the Algebric Expression.
Please hlep me.

Hi,

To get random numbers, first Create a Function:

Public Function Rand(ByVal Low As Long, _

                     ByVal High As Long) As Long

  Rand = Int((High - Low + 1) * Rnd) + Low

End Function

To Get five numbers,

dim N1,N2,N3,N4,N5 as long

N1 = Rand(500, 600)

N2 = Rand(500, 600)

N3 = Rand(500, 600)

N4 = Rand(500, 600)

N5 = Rand(500, 600)

' 

Randomize

'

after this, it would be easy to solve the expression...
