Functions similar to randomize()

[boral]

Pelles C does not support randomize() . Is there any function which is alternative to randomize() and is supported by Pelles C ?

randomize() is BASIC.
Open help and search for rand() function.

Thanks for your reply. Can you please explain in brief how does the 'seed' works ? Thanks in advance.

Well, you might better ask what part of the (pseudo)random number generation is unclear to you.

The 'seed' is a random (or not) starting value from which the (pseudo)random number generator starts to generate it's output. The same seed will result in the same sequence of generated numbers. Different seeds will result in different number sequences.

I found some ANSI C source code for a random number generator library.
