rand

Returns a pseudorandom integer number.

int rand()

randSeed

The rand function sets the starting point for generating a series of pseudorandom integers. To reinitialize the generator, use 1 as the seed argument. Any other value for seed sets the generator to a random starting point. rand retrieves the pseudorandom numbers that are generated. Calling rand with no seed before any call to rand with a seed generates the same sequence as calling rand with seed 1.
