Gaaaahhhh!!! The more I look, the worse it gets!PHP:rand() says: 'On some platforms (such as Windows), getrandmax() is only 32768.'
WHAT??!!! That's like helpfully including free exploding poisoned razor blades with the programming language you ordered!
'... consider using mt_rand() instead.'
It depends what you want the pseudo-randomness for, but if patterning will have a serious bad effect, you might want to use mt_rand() instead. Don't forget to think about how it is seeded, too!
