I have a Scan Snap S1500 it will not allow me to print due to integer needing to be between 1 - 0 It does not allow me to imput these numbers and comes up with same message. Can you help please Bob

You do the operation to get a decimal number.
Isolate the integer part (to the left of the decimal point)
Convert the non integer part (decimal part) into a fraction.
Write the result as (integer part) (fraction part)
3/2=1.5
Integer part is 1, decimal part is 0.5
0.5 as a fraction is 1/2
3/2= 1 1/2

The post answer the question concerning how to generate random integers. The example given is for rolling a dice. I am inserting the modification that treats your case at the end.

The random number generator function is called Ran# and can be accessed in RUN mode by pressing:
[OPTN] [F6] [F3] (PROB) [F4] to access the (Ran#) function
In the paragraph above, the bold text in square brackets indicates keypresses, while the text in parentheses represents the menus that appear at the bottom of the calculator screen. This also assumes there are no menus on the bottom of the screen when you begin. If PROB is already on the screen, then the [F6] key is not necessary, just press [F3] then [F4] at this point.

The Ran# function generates a random decimal number between 0 and 1. If you need to generate a number with a higher range, then there may be extra steps involved. For example, to choose a random number between 0 and 100, you would enter:
Ran#×100 or Ran#(100)


Let's say you want to simulate a dice roll, where you get an integer between 1 and 6. Your first step would be to do:
Ran#×6
This will give you a random decimal number between 0 and 6. But we need an integer, not a decimal. To make it an integer, you would change this to:
Int(Ran#×6)

Press [OPTN] [F6] [F4] (NUM) [F2] to access the (Int)

This now gives you an integer between 0 and 5. We just need to add 1 to the result.
Int(Ran#×6)+1
The result should be an integer between 1 and 6.


To generate random number between 1 and 50
Int(Ran#×50)+1

no decimals (1.5, .56) no fractions (1/2, 1 3/4)

whole numbers are just whole numbers
1, 2, 3 and on 9,10,11 .....

not
1.5, 2.5, 2.356
1 1/5, 2 2/6,3 1/5

A random number generator exists on this calculator. It is accessible in RUN or PGRM modes by pressing the OPTN key. If you don not see a tab PROB at the bottom of screen, press the rightmost key to move to next page.

Anyway, RAND# generates a real number between 0 and 1.

For other numbers read on.

The picture link didn't work for me... and seeing as you asked in August of 2008, I'm certain you don't need this answer, but here you go...

According to the TI-89 Guidebook:

This notation indicates an “arbitrary integer” that represents any integer. When an arbitrary integer occurs multiple times in the same session, each occurrence is numbered consecutively. After it reaches 255, arbitrary integer consecutive numbering restarts at @n0.

This notation indicates an “arbitrary constant” that represents any integer. When an arbitrary constant occurs multiple times in the same session, each occurrence is numbered consecutively. After it reaches 255, arbitrary integer consecutive numbering restarts at @0.

So it's the same concept, just a little different. It all depends if it is shown as @n1 or @1 where 1 can be any integer to 255

Hope this helps

this the code for your problem. by the way this for vb6.0
