rand() value type in c code example

Example 1: c rand()

#import <stdlib.h>
#import <time.h>

int r;
srand(time(NULL));
r = rand();

/* 
This will give you a pseudo random integer between 0 and RAND_MAX. 
srand(time(NULL)) is used to give it a random starting seed, based on the
current time. rand() could be used without it, but would always return the
same sequence of numbers.
To generate a random number in between 0 (included) and X (excluded), do
the following:
*/

#import <stdlib.h>
#import <time.h>

int r;
srand(time(NULL));
r = rand() % X;

Example 2: rand in c return type

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main () {
   int i, n;
   time_t t;
   
   n = 5;
   
   /* Intializes random number generator */
   //srand((unsigned) time(&t));

   /* Print 5 random numbers from 0 to 49 */
   for( i = 0 ; i < n ; i++ ) {
      printf("%d\n", rand() % 50);
   }
   
   return(0);
}
