Solve : Math functions in DOS?

1.	Solve : Math functions in DOS?
Answer» Is there a way to multiply two environment variables in DOS? I have generated two random variables that I now want to multiply to generate a LARGER random NUMBER. Thank you.DOS does not do arithmetic. However the cmd processor under Win2000 and WinXP (MAYBE even WinNT) has facilities for doing simple math. Code: [Select]set rand1=%random% set rand2=%random% set /a result=%rand1%*%rand2% ECHO %result% 8-)Perfect! Thank you very much.
