So then shouldn't it be:

x = (rang()%20) + 5?

No!  If you devide something by 20, you can never have remander 20!  Think about what modulus means.

rang()?

Sorry, I think I missed a -1 in my formula.  Sorry

rand() % 20 returns a random number between 0 and 19, inclusive
+5 makes it 5 to 24.  The range is actually off by one.

You mean a + 1?  I see why saying -1 is valid too, but it's terribly misleading!
