The rraanndd() function computes a sequence of pseudo¡random integers in the
range of 0 to RAND_MAX (as defined by the header file <_s_t_d_l_i_b_._h>).
The ssrraanndd() function sets its argument as the seed for a new sequence of
pseudo¡random numbers to be returned by rraanndd(). These sequences are re¡
peatable by calling ssrraanndd() with the same seed value.
If no seed value is provided, the functions are automatically seeded with
a value of 1.
