  Sure, generating a random number in C++ is quite straightforward. You can use the 'rand' function from the 'cstdlib' library to generate a random number. To generate a random number between 1 and 10, you can use the following code snippet: ```cpp #include <cstdlib> #include <ctime> int main() { srand(time(0)); int randomNumber = rand() % 10 + 1; // Use the randomNumber for your calculations return 0; } ``` This code snippet initializes the random number generator with the current time and then generates a random number between 0 and 9 using the 'rand' function. By adding 1 to the result, you get a random number between 1 and 10.

  Generating a random number in C++ is a piece of cake! You can use the 'random' library introduced in C++11 to generate random numbers. Here's a code snippet that generates a random number between 1 and 10: ```cpp #include <random> int main() { std::random_device rd; std::mt19937 gen(rd()); std::uniform_int_distribution<> dis(1, 10); int randomNumber = dis(gen); // Use the randomNumber for your calculations return 0; } ``` This code snippet uses the Mersenne Twister engine from the 'random' library to generate a random number between 1 and 10. The 'random_device' is used to seed the engine, ensuring a different sequence of random numbers each time the program is run.
