Can someone give me an example on how to access an object from a vector at random.

say there are 10 objects in the vector, within the loop i want to access those objects at random instead of iterating through from 1 to 10.

I figured it out!

+ Code Snippet

int RandEnemy(void)
{
	int num = 0;

	int VecSize = (int)SpawnController.EnemyVector.size();
	const int RandEnem = dbRnd(VecSize-1);

	if (SpawnController.EnemyVector[RandEnem].Alive == true)
	{
		num = SpawnController.EnemyVector[RandEnem].SpriteNum;
	}
	return num;
}

theres the code for anyone else who may need help
