C Program to Generate Random Numbers in a Range

This is a C Program to generate random numbers within given range. This version of code uses rand() and srand() functions.

Here is source code of the C Program to Generate Randomized Sequence of Given Range of Numbers. The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

```
#include <stdio.h>
```
```
#include <stdlib.h>
```
```
#include <time.h>
```
```
 
```
```
const int LOW = 1;
```
```
const int HIGH = 32000;
```
```
 
```
```
int main() {
```
```
    int randomNumber, i;
```
```
    time_t seconds;
```
```
    time(&seconds);
```
```
    srand((unsigned int) seconds);
```
```
    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
```

        randomNumber = rand() % (HIGH - LOW + 1) + LOW;

```
 
```
```
        printf("%d ", randomNumber);
```
```
    }
```
```
    printf("...");
```
```
    return 0;
```
```
}
```

Output:

$ gcc RandomizedSeqOfNumbers.cpp
$ ./a.out
