Taking a random number from an array.

Question

Is it possible to take a random number out of an array? If so then how I tried using this code but a get an error
int myArr [] = {1,3,4,5,6,7,2,8,9,0,89};
cout << myArr [srand];
return 0;

This is the error

..\Playground\: In function 'int main()':
..\Playground\:7:25: error: invalid types 'int [11][void(unsigned int)]' for array subscript
cout << myArr [srand];
^
Can anyone help?

Answer 1

random_no=rand()%11+1;
cout<<myArr[random_no];

Answer 2

0 + ( std::rand() % ( 11 - 0 + 1 ) )
use this instead of your srand.
Firstly srand must be followed by paranthesis.
since your array has size 11 and random will generate any number you must put some limit.
L+(std::rand()%(U-L+1)
L lower limit
U upper limit
