RAND — Random number
Chooses a random number within a range.
RAND() randomly picks an
integer between min and
max, inclusive, and returns that integer. If
min is not specified, it defaults to 0. If max is not
specified, it defaults to the C constant INT_MAX, which is 2,147,483,647 on 32-bit
platforms. Note that INT_MAX is quite
a bit larger on 64-bit platforms.
