Generating random number between 1 to 10 but having discrete steps

Hi,

I want to generate random time steps to test my function. As i have to give random time and it will generate output on that time value. any simple solution.

As i have tried before this method.

if true
  N =10;
  randperm(N);
  %giving me 
  output =  5     2    10     3     8     1     9     7     4     6

%But i want output as 
output = 1.857  3.597 2.684  7.158  9.516  5.535 
end

Need your guidance.

output = rand(1, 10) * 10;

There's no guarantee that the 10 values are unique but the probability that you have two identical values is extremely small.

[Joseph Cheng]

to expand on that why not use what you have but add the decimal as rand as well.

N =10;
output = randperm(N)+rand(1,10)

or instead of randperm you can use randi(10,1,numtests)+rand(1,numtests) where numtests is the number of test cases you're putting in.
