but ACM formula we use have internal state (and return value) in the [1, 0x7ffffffe] range, so our RAND_MAX (0x7fffffff) is never reached because it is off by one, zero is not reached too. Correct both RAND_MAX and rand(3) return value, shifting last one to the 0 by 1 subtracted, resulting POSIXed [0, 0x7ffffffd(=new RAND_MAX)] range. 2) Add a checks for not overflowing on too big seeds. It may happens on the machines, where sizeof(unsigned int) > 32 bits. Reviewed by: bde [1] MFC after: 2 weeks
