+.Sh NAME
+.Nm rand ,
+.Nm srand
+.Nd bad random number generator
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <stdlib.h>
+.Ft void
+.Fn srand "unsigned seed"
+.Ft int
+.Fn rand void
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Bf -symbolic
+These interfaces are obsoleted by random(3).
+.Ef
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn rand
+function computes a sequence of pseudo-random integers in the range
+of 0 to
+.Dv RAND_MAX
+(as defined by the header file
+.Aq Pa stdlib.h ) .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn srand
+function sets its argument as the seed for a new sequence of
+pseudo-random numbers to be returned by
+.Fn rand .
+These sequences are repeatable by calling
+.Fn srand
+with the same seed value.
+.Pp
+If no seed value is provided, the functions are automatically
+seeded with a value of 1.
