About my (Larry Hudson) randx() example code:
I used randint() in it because that was what the OP was using. I didn't want to bother with the
side issue of randint() vs randrange() since it was just meant as example code to be adapted.
If I had written it for my own use I would have used randrange() for the consistency that you
are describing.
Not an excuse — just a comment. ;-)
