Title: Typical Examples using the Random Verb.
**********************************************************************

1) Example Syntax

	a) Random @v1 From 0 to 65534;

		1) Puts a random # between 0 and 65534 into Variable 1

	b) Random @v2 From 1 to 65535;

		2) Puts a random # between 1 and 65535 into Variable 2

	c) Random @v3 From @v1 to @v2;

		3) Puts a random # between @v1 and @v2 into Variable 3

	d) Random @i800 From 0 to 255;

		4) Puts a random # between 0 and 255 into
		    input channel 800

	e) Random @o600 From 0 to 255;

		5) Puts a random # between 0 and 255 into
		    output channel 600

	f) Random @v63 From 65534 to 2;

		6) Generates one of the #s (65534, 65535, 0, 1, 2)


2) Example Cue

LOOP: Random @v10 from 1 to 3; Puts a Random # between 1 and 3 into Var 10
If @v10 = 1 GoTo CRASH; If Variable 10 equals 1 Play the Crash Sequence
If @v10 = 2 GoTo BANG; If Variable 10 equals 2 Play the Bang Sequence
If @v10 = 3 GoTo BOOM; If Variable 10 equals 3 Play the Boom Sequence
GoTo LOOP;
CRASH: Play 'DSM01' Track 1 Segment 1;  Plays Crash Sound Effect
Delay 00:00:05.00; Delay 5 seconds for Crash Sequence to complete
GoTo LOOP;
;
BANG: Play 'DSM01' Track 1 Segment 2;  Plays Bang Sound Effect
Delay 00:00:01.00; Delay 1 seconds for Bang Sequence to complete
GoTo LOOP;
;
BOOM: Play 'DSM01' Track 1 Segment 3;  Plays Boom Sound Effect
Delay 00:00:02.00; Delay 2 seconds for Boom Sequence to complete
GoTo LOOP;


3) Notes

	1) Random Generates a Integer Random Number.

	2) The Difference Between From and To must be less than
	    or equal to 65534.

	3) The Random # can be placed into a Variable, Input Channel,
	    or Output Channel.

	4) The Random # Verb can be passed Constants,
	    or Variables in the FROM & TO tokens.

	5) The Random numbers will not repeat on a hard, or soft reset.

	6) The Random numbers will repeat at power on,
	    If a real time clock is not installed.
