Hey tonyq,

I wrote this little tutorial a while ago:

http://wiki.ada-dk.org/index.php/The_Dice_Roller_Program

As the name suggests, the tutorial centers around a program that rolls 
dice, and as such it needs to generate some random numbers. The part the 
does the random stuff can be found here:

http://wiki.ada-dk.org/index.php/The_Dice_Roller_Program#dice-random.ads_and_dice-random.adb

It's not a very complicated routine, so you should be able to tweak it 
to match your needs.  :o)
