I am currently trying to self-teach myself to do 
68000 Assembly.  It would seem to me, that in order
to write a decent game program, that you would need
some sort of routine to generate a random number
(eg.  roll a dice, etc...).  Does the Amiga, in
its OS, have some sort of routine I can access that
will accomplish this for me?  IF not, what is the
best way to proceed with writing code that will
accomplish what I want?

(BTW, I do have some college experience with 370
assembler and 8086 assembler languages, so I'm 
not going into this blind.)
