How do I get a number that will be psuedo random?  time(null) % max
doesn't work because the numbers need to be read in quick succession and
it simply produces a 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9...0,1,2.... etc. pattern.. So,
how do I get a number that seems sort of random with a variable max?
		

				thanks in advance
