RANDOMIZE [expr]

Seeds the random number generator with expr.

Parameters

expr is a numeric expression.

Notes

• For the same seed, SE Basic IV produces different pseudorandom numbers from Microsoft BASIC.
• The random number generator is very poor and should not be used for serious purposes. See RND for details.

Errors

• expr has a string value: Illegal function call.
• The user provides a seed outside [-32768 to 32767] at the prompt: Overflow.
