You are using the `random' function incorrectly; please consult the 
library reference documentation.

The DJGPP version of `random' is not like the one from Borland: it 
does NOT take an argument, and it returns a random integer between 0 and 
RAND_MAX.  RAND_MAX is defined in the stdlib.h header.
