LlFrand

Returns a float that is pseudo random number in the range [0.0,mag) or (mag, 0.0].
The sign of mag matches the return.

returns a pseudo random number in range [0.0, mag) or (mag, 0.0], depending upon the sign of mag.

The random number generator is not a source of entropy.

Pseudo-random_Number_Generator - Suitable for apps which require repeatable results that feel random.

The random number generator is not a source of entropy.

The sequence of random numbers are shared across the entire process, and not independently seeded. Therefore, the pseudo random number generation is not suitable for any application which requires completely predictable or completely unpredictable results.
