SRAND

SYNOPSIS

#include  <stdlib.h>

void srand(int seed)


DESCRIPTION

Srand() initializes the random number generator accessed by rand() with the given seed. This provides a mechanism for varying the starting point of the pseudo-random sequence yielded by rand(). On the z80, a good place to get a truly random seed is from the refresh register. Otherwise timing a response from the console will do.
