\modulesynopsis{None}
The \code{rand} module simulates the C library's \code{rand()}
interface, though the results aren't necessarily compatible with any
given library's implementation. While still supported for
compatibility, the \code{rand} module is now considered obsolete; if
possible, use the \code{whrandom} module instead.
\begin{funcdesc}{choice}{seq}
Returns a random element from the sequence \var{seq}.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{rand}{}
Return a random integer between 0 and 32767, inclusive.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{srand}{seed}
Set a starting seed value for the random number generator; \var{seed}
can be an arbitrary integer.
\end{funcdesc}
