#22988 [NEW]: I'm feeling lucky - rand() bug

From: vakmajom at freemail dot hu Operating system: Windows 2000 PHP version: 4.3.2RC1 PHP Bug Type: Math related Bug description: I'm feeling lucky - rand() bug The function rand() always returns an even number! This bug appears when the parameters of rand() are near to the limits of int (i.e. 2147483647) Example: <?php echo(rand(1, 2147483647)); ?> Result: always an even number. I'm using Apache 2.0.44 with PHP4.3.2RC1 (original Win32 binary) as an apache module. Tests with different systems: Maybe this is a Windows bug, it still exists in Windows .Net server build 3718 with PHP 4.3.0 RC3 But everything is fine on a unix system with PHP 4.1.0 Strange... :)) -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22988&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22988&r=gnused
