NAME

       Builtins::srand - Seeds the random number generator

SYNOPSIS

       Void srand( Int seed )

ARGUMENTS

       seed The initial seed

DESCRIPTION

       Seeds  the  random  number  generator.  This must be called before any calls to Builtins.rand (3kaya) are
       made. Seeding with the same  integer  will  give  the  same  sequence  of  pseudo-random  numbers.  Where
       unpredictability  is not crucial, the Time.time (3kaya) function can be used to give a different sequence
       each time the program is run.
