MATLAB: How to generate random number within a sum limit

numberrandom numberrandom number generator

Generate 5 random numbers, where their sum should be less/equal to 50.

while true
A=randi([1 15],5,1);
if(sum(A)<=50)
   break;
end
end
disp(A)
disp(sum(A))

I would use a while loop.

while summation <= x
    %add a random integer to the summation
end

Matlab does not have that kind of implementation. On the other hand, you can do a work around using conditionals, either whiles or ifs.

For example, instead of

B=[2 4 6 8];
C=[1.5 3 4 5.6]; 
A = sum(B-C);
if A>1
    go to say line 3 ? 
else
    disp(A)
end

You might do: ( I know the example has no sense, but it's to take your lines as an example)

A = 10;
while A>1
   B=[2 4 6 8];
   C=[1.5 3 4 5.6]; 
   A = sum(B-C);
end
disp(A)
