+ANSI_SYNOPSIS
+	#include <stdlib.h>
+	int rand(void);
+	void srand(unsigned int <[seed]>);
+	int rand_r(unsigned int *<[seed]>);
+
+TRAD_SYNOPSIS
+	#include <stdlib.h>

+
+DESCRIPTION
+<<rand>> returns a different integer each time it is called; each
+integer is chosen by an algorithm designed to be unpredictable, so
+that you can use <<rand>> when you require a random number.
+The algorithm depends on a static variable called the ``random seed'';
+starting with a given value of the random seed always produces the
+same sequence of numbers in successive calls to <<rand>>.
+
+You can set the random seed using <<srand>>; it does nothing beyond
+storing its argument in the static variable used by <<rand>>.  You can
+exploit this to make the pseudo-random sequence less predictable, if
+you wish, by using some other unpredictable value (often the least
+significant parts of a time-varying value) as the random seed before
+beginning a sequence of calls to <<rand>>; or, if you wish to ensure
+(for example, while debugging) that successive runs of your program
+use the same ``random'' numbers, you can use <<srand>> to set the same
+random seed at the outset.
+
+RETURNS
+<<rand>> returns the next pseudo-random integer in sequence; it is a
+number between <<0>> and <<RAND_MAX>> (inclusive).
+
+<<srand>> does not return a result.
+
+NOTES
+<<rand>> and <<srand>> are unsafe for multi-thread applications.
+<<rand_r>> is MT-Safe and should be used instead.
+
+
+PORTABILITY
+<<rand>> is required by ANSI, but the algorithm for pseudo-random
+number generation is not specified; therefore, even if you use
+the same random seed, you cannot expect the same sequence of results
+on two different systems.
+
+<<rand>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.
