+Random number functions. @code{random} returns a random number in the
+range @code{0..LONG_MAX}. @code{srandom} initializes the random
+number generator to some starting point determined by @var{seed}
+(else, the values returned by @code{random} are always the same for each
+run of the program). @code{initstate} and @code{setstate} allow fine-grain
+control over the state of the random number generator.
