_randint		equ			$5544

input:
	OP1,OP2 = min and max integers (arguments 1 and 2 in basic function)
output:
	OP1=random integer

example:
store a random integer between 10 and 25 in register a

	ld a,10
	call _SetXXOP1				;OP1=10
	ld a,25
	call _SetXXOP2				;OP2=25
	call _randint					;get random number
	call _CONVOP1				;a=OP1
