how to use rand function in c

The srand() function sets the starting point 	
	for producing a series of pseudo-random integers. 
If srand() is not called, 
	the rand() seed is set as if srand(1) were called at program start. 
Any other value for seed sets the generator to a different starting point.

The rand() function generates the pseudo-random numbers.

#include <stdlib.h>
void srand(unsigned int seed);
int rand(void)

rand and srand are usually implemented as a simple LCG

the C standard itself includes a sample implementation of rand and srand:

static unsigned long int next = 1;

int rand(void) // RAND_MAX assumed to be 32767
{
    next = next * 1103515245 + 12345;
    return (unsigned int)(next/65536) % 32768;
}

void srand(unsigned int seed)
{
    next = seed;
}
