Google has a lot of answers for you. But first of all you have to decide the hash you want to use, the password length, compexity, if you need to comply with a standard, and so on. But this is a good start:

C#

public static int CalculateHotp(byte[] key, byte[] counter)
{
    var hmacsha1 = new HMACSHA1(key);
    byte[] hmac_result = hmacsha1.ComputeHash(counter);
    int offset = hmac_result[19] & 0x0f;
    int bin_code = (hmac_result[offset]  & 0x7f) << 24
                   | (hmac_result[offset+1] & 0xff) << 16
                   | (hmac_result[offset+2] & 0xff) <<  8
                   | (hmac_result[offset+3] & 0xff);
    int hotp = bin_code % 1000000;
    return hotp;
}

Update:

C#

using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Text;

namespace OTATest
{
    static class OTAGenerator
    {
        private static char[] pwdCharArray = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789`~!@#$%^&*()-_=+[]{}\\|;:'\",<.>/?".ToCharArray();

        public static string GenerateOTA(int keyLength = 10)
        {
            using (RNGCryptoServiceProvider rngCsp = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
            {
                StringBuilder sBuilder = new StringBuilder();
                byte[] key = new byte[1];

                for (int i = 0; i < keyLength; i++)
                {
                    do
                    {
                        rngCsp.GetNonZeroBytes(key);
                    }
                    while (key[0] > pwdCharArray.Length);
                    sBuilder.Append(pwdCharArray[key[0]]);
                }

                return sBuilder.ToString();
            }
        }
    }
}

C#

public decimal Rand()
    {
        byte[] Salt = new byte[8];
        System.Security.Cryptography.RandomNumberGenerator.Create().GetBytes(Salt);
        decimal result = 0;
        foreach (byte b in Salt)
        {      result = result * 255 + b;  }
        while (result > 100)
        {      result /= 10;
        }
        return result;
    }

Hope this works...
