Randomly select group

[allyn44@cox.net]

Hi--I ned to randomize a calculation result to put it into 1 of 2
groups. Can I use the randomize funciton for this? Basically i ahve
this:

If sum> 0
set group =1
If sum < 0
set group =2

if sum =0

I want it to randomly set group to either 1 or 2

Any ideas?
