Does standard Pascal support a predefined RANDOM function? All my texts do not
include RANDOM in the idex, so it seems that it might not be standard; yet my
professor said that it was. I'm not sure anymore. So what I want to know is:
if I want to write standard legitimate Pascal mode, should I write my own
pseudorandom number generator or can I use a built-in function?
