Remarks
randomize initializes the random number generator with a random value. Because randomize is implemented as a macro that calls the time function prototyped in time.h, we recommend that you also include time.h when you use this routine.
Return value
None.

Example
*include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

for(i=0; i<10; i++)
printf ("%d\n", randO % 100);
return 0;
