you can include stdlib.h (iirc) which contains the rand() and srand() methods

what hinanawi means is that you need to set a random seed everytime you open a prpgram, and that can be done with time(NULL) which will be different everytime is opened.

Shreeniket Upasani that's because you have to do srand(time(NULL)) every time you want a new number generated (time.h should be included also)
