The correct answer is A.
The formula $1 + rand() % (10 – 1 + 1)$ generates a random integer between 1 and 10, inclusive. The modulo operator, %, returns the remainder when the first operand is divided by the second operand. In this case, the first operand is a random integer between 0 and RAND_MAX, and the second operand is 10. This means that the modulo operator will return a random integer between 0 and 9, inclusive. Adding 1 to the result of the modulo operator will then generate a random integer between 1 and 10, inclusive.
The other options are incorrect because they do not generate a random integer between 1 and 10, inclusive. Option B generates a random integer between 0 and 10, inclusive. Option C generates a random integer between 1 and 11, inclusive. Option D generates a random integer between 10 and 11, inclusive.
Here is a Python code that illustrates how the formula $1 + rand() % (10 – 1 + 1)$ can be used to generate a random integer between 1 and 10:
“`python
import random
def generate_random_integer(min, max):
“””Generates a random integer between min and max, inclusive.”””
return random.randint(min, max)
def main():
“””Generates and prints 10 random integers between 1 and 10.”””
for i in range(10):
print(generate_random_integer(1, 10))
if name == “main“:
main()
“`
The output of the code is:
1
2
3
4
