Description:
------------
php.net/rand reads:
"If called without the optional min, max arguments rand() returns a
pseudo-random value between 0 and RAND_MAX. If you want a random number
between 5 and 15 (inclusive), for example, use rand (5, 15)."
However, from "int rand ( [int min, int max])" and the example given,
I'm assuming that it does not give a *value*, but, more specifically,
an *integer*. Perhaps the description should be changed.
