Why not just use the "rand" and "srand" functions from the C runtime
library?  rand takes no parameters and returns a pseudo-random integer
in the range 0..32767.  srand can be called to set the starting point
for the pseudo-random number generator.  (Don't forget to include the
bind directory QC2LE.)

Cheers!
