Hi,
I wrote a awk line here:
awk 'BEGIN {OFS="\t"} {print $0, int(rand()*($2-$1 + 1) + $1) }' filename
Basically what it does is that it takes the start (column 1) and stop (column 2) and generates a random # in between start and stop.
I want to take this a step further and have it generate 100 random numbers at once. How would i do that? is it called looping?
