 The function \verb'mod' is equivalent to the \verb'%' operator in C.
 
+The functions \verb'random' and \verb'randomseed' are interfaces to
+the simple random generator functions \verb'rand' and \verb'srand',
+provided by ANSI C.
+The function \verb'random' returns pseudo-random numbers in the range
