@ fasaxc at yahoo dot com: If you want truly random numbers, use a truly random source. Your system is rather unwieldy when you can simply call openssl_random_pseudo_bytes() for good randomness. Don't use microtime as a source of randomness. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 72.52.91.14 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.mt-srand.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/113978 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/113978 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/113978 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
