- Hey there!
-
- I'm working on a little program and I am looking for some clock related
- function that will return a long so I can use to seed a random number
- generator if the user does not supply a seed.
-
- I've read through the manual but didn't see anything I could use without
- lots of shifting and && together to get a long. Any ideas anyone?
