I have written this macro to generate integers in [0..A[

 #macro RandInt(A, RS)  floor(A * rand(RS) * 0.999999)  #end

The factor 0.999999 is to ensure A itself is excluded; rand() returns a value in
[0..1], so including 1.

When I use #debug to see the macro's return value it's fine, but when I assign
it to a variable, like

 #declare somevar = RandInt(4, Rnd3);

somevar will always be 0. Can anybody explain this, and how to solve it? I've
written several similar macros which work fine.

TIA
Steven
