Hi..
I've been searching at the Internet, and in this newsgroup about this
issue, but have not been able to find what I'm searching...
What I need is to generate a lot of random real numbers between 0 and
1, both inclusive (normally it's possible to generate the number
between 0(inclusive) and 1 (exclusive!!!) )
Can anyone tell me how this is done?

Are you really sure about the requirements? If we forget limitations of
computational technology the chance to get 1 is infinitesimal. As such
for any practical purposes you should be able to exclude 1 and be
perfectly happy with results.
Even if we take into account the fact that you don't get fine grained
results the chance to get 1 is still very close to 0 for any practical
purposes.
