  }
  if (j1 == i1 && j2 == i2)
    {
      puts ("Test succeeded.");
      return 0;
    }
  else
    {
      if (j1 != i1)
	printf ("%d != %d\n", j1, i1);
      if (j2 != i2)
	printf ("%d != %d\n", j2, i2);
      puts ("Test FAILED!");
      return 1;
    }
}

 这是glib-2.06/stdlib/testrand.c中的代码。

 很早以前写生成随机数的程序，总是忘了先srand()指定一个种子，所以生成的数列都是一样的。

 今天看一些库函数的源代码，一不小心看到stdlib文件夹里竟然有这段测试随机生成相同不相同的代码。

/* The C standard says that "If rand is called before any calls to
     srand have been made, the same sequence shall be generated as
     when srand is first called with a seed value of 1." */

 这句话保证了不指定srand(）的话必须生成相同！
