Coding error

I'm getting an error from this code that says:
"Return statement type doesn't match function return type"

Can anyone give me a clue as to what I am doing wrong? I am trying to return an integer between zero and 12.

getRndnum()
{
float number = llFrand(12); //number between 0 and 12
integer n = llFloor(number);
return n;
}

The function definition has to agree with the return type. As declared, your function cannot return anything.

integer getRndNum() {
// code
}

ok, which would be the correct way?

integer getRndCard()
{
float number = llFrand(12); //number between 0 and 12
integer n = llFloor(number);
return n;
}

------or-------

getRndCard(integer n)
{
float number = llFrand(12); //number between 0 and 12
integer n = llFloor(number);
return n;
}

?

ok I got it, at least this seems to work...

placing "integer" in front of the function call name worked.

Thanks, I appreciate the clue!

Yes, because 'return' returns something, and you have to declare what return will be returning by putting it in front of the function name.

this was the first time I used a local variable (local to the function) to do this "return" in the past I would typically use a global variable. I thought I would try to be a little more memory conscious this time so used the return. Thanks for the help. As usual, the Forums ARE all they can be! Thanks man, you help keep this place what it is! (take a rating out of petty cash from me!) haha.
