Dear lammps users,
Did you use rand(x,y,z) function and store the number as a variable?
I have found that the value of stored variable (rnx) is changed during calls, contrary with those (cnt) obtained from simple math functions. (see below results.)
I just guess the reason. Could you clarify this?
Thank you.

My input script
processors 8 4 1
variable movex equal 111.1
variable i equal 1
variable cnt equal floor(i/10)
variable rnx equal random(0,{movex},i)
variable rnxx equal {rnx}
print “movex = {movex}"
print "movex = {movex}”
print “cnt = {cnt}"
print "cnt = {cnt}”
print “rnx = {rnx}"
print "rnx = {rnx}”
print “rnxx = {rnxx}"
print "rnxx = {rnxx}”
Output
