Answer 2

Random numbers are generated by using the rand() function .

EXPLANATION :

⏩ In coding , we are always required to know how to generate random values because it is helpful in many situations .

⏩ The random values helps in making games , building advanced programs and so on and hence there should be a function so that we can easily generate random numbers .

⏩ This is somewhat achieved by rand() .

⏩ We need to include the header of <cstdlib> whenever we are adding the rand() in a C++ program .

⏩ My advise for generating random numbers is to use the function srand() which allows the function to specify a seed value which helps to deliver random numbers .

⏩ We can also specify the extent of the range of random numbers to be generated .
