DESCRIPTION¶
These functions are the reentrant analogs of the functions described in drand48(3). Instead of modifying the global random generator state, they use the supplied data buffer.RETURN VALUE¶
The return value is 0.CONFORMING TO¶
These functions are GNU extensions and are not portable.SEE ALSO¶
