#include <stdlib.h>

void srand (unsigned int seed);

Parameters

seed

Starting point for random-number generation. Use 1 to reinitialize the generator.

Remarks

rand retrieves pseudorandom numbers. Calling rand before any call to srand generates the same sequence as calling srand with seed passed as 1.

Return Values

Nothing.
