I have the following in LightspeedC 3.02
 
long int ltime;
     int number;

     GetDateTime(&ltime);
     randSeed=ltime;
     number=Random();

Everything compiles fine, but when I run, the system comes up with a
bomb box ID 12 when it trys to do the number=Random();.   I've even
tried it with just that line, and left randSeed set to its default
and it still bombs.   
What am I doing wrong???
 
Is there a good book anyone can recommend on learning C?
 
Thanks...
