rand Generate a random integer &reftitle.description; intrand intrand intmin intmax If called without the optional min, max arguments rand returns a pseudo-random integer between 0 and getrandmax. If you want a random number between 5 and 15 (inclusive), for example, use rand(5, 15). On some platforms (such as Windows), getrandmax is only 32768. If you require a range larger than 32768, specifying min and max will allow you to create a range larger than this, or consider using mt_rand instead. &reftitle.parameters; min The lowest value to return (default: 0) max The highest value to return (default: getrandmax) &reftitle.returnvalues; A pseudo random value between min (or 0) and max (or getrandmax, inclusive). &reftitle.changelog; &Version; &Description; &changelog.randomseed; &reftitle.examples; <function>rand</function> example ]]> &example.outputs.similar; &reftitle.seealso; srand getrandmax mt_rand
