You'll have to forgive me if this question is too easy I'm a C
beginner, but any it has to do with srand.

To seed the random number table I always used srand(time(NULL)).
I have both time.h and stdlib.h included. Djgpp refuses to accept
this line of code. Is there any other way to do this?

I download some programs hoping to find this answer but most
of them had a randomize() function which Djgpp doesnt seem to touch
and one of them even querried the user for the seed!

Maybe this could be put in the faq?


Thanks,

Bryan Willett
