SUBROUTINES rand - standard random number generator INVOCATION srand( seed ) unsigned seed; int rand() EXPLANATION Rand(3) uses a full period, mixed linear congruential generator to return a pseudo-random number in the range 0 to 32767 {INT_MAX}. The formula used is: seed = (1103515245 * seed + 12345) % 2147483648 Srand(3) sets the seed to an initial value, the default is 1. RESULTS Rand(3) returns 15 bits from the high order word of seed.
