note 106288 added to function.mt-srand

mt_srand effectively performs a modulo % 2147483648 on positive integers over 32 bits, but with negative integers it instead adds 2147483648 to the value it gets. Seeds with equal results: 2147483649 == 1 2147483648 == 0 2147483647 == -1 -2147483646 == 2 -2147483647 == 1 -2147483648 == 0 Importantly though, seeding with anything less than -2147483648 will always yield the same result as seeding with zero. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 90.10.61.145 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mt-srand.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/106288 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106288 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/106288 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
