Random float number between 0 and 1.0 php [duplicate]

Answer 1

how about this simple solution:

abs(1-mt_rand()/mt_rand()) 

or

/**
 * Generate Float Random Number
 *
 * @param float $Min Minimal value
 * @param float $Max Maximal value
 * @param int $round The optional number of decimal digits to round to. default 0 means not round
 * @return float Random float value
 */
function float_rand($Min, $Max, $round=0){
    //validate input
    if ($min>$Max) { $min=$Max; $max=$Min; }
        else { $min=$Min; $max=$Max; }
    $randomfloat = $min + mt_rand() / mt_getrandmax() * ($max - $min);
    if($round>0)
        $randomfloat = round($randomfloat,$round);

    return $randomfloat;
}
