I need a sed line that will take STDM111 and change it to STDM161
the STDM will always be constant but the 3 numbers after will be random, I just need it to always replace the middle number with 6 regardless of what the numbers are. (8 Replies)
Good day,
First off, I would just like to say that I've been helped by a lot of the posts here in my own scripting work in the past few months. I've been a long time roamer, but first time poster. That being said, I'm stuck trying to figure out this issue (For computational research, not a... (4 Replies)

Hi all,
I need to run a number of scripts which have a certain phrase on them so I have identified these by;
grep -l 100 *script | sort -u
Normally I could just run something along the lines of;
for i in `grep -l 100 *script | sort -u`; do ./${i}; done
However before I run each of... (0 Replies)

Hi all,
I want to count total no. of characters in a column. and if no. of charaters are more than 3 then it must replace it by splitted string. ie, it must place a space after 3 characters.
Ex:

column number 3 has 4 alphanumeric character, so it must be splitted... (3 Replies)

srand
rand(3C) Standard C Library Functions rand(3C)NAME
rand, srand, rand_r - simple random-number generator
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int rand(void);
void srand(unsigned int seed);
int rand_r(unsigned int *seed);
DESCRIPTION
The rand() function uses a multiplicative congruential random-number generator with period 2**32 that returns successive pseudo-random num-
bers in the range of 0 to RAND_MAX (defined in <stdlib.h>).
The srand() function uses the argument seed as a seed for a new sequence of pseudo-random numbers to be returned by subsequent calls to
rand(). If srand() is then called with the same seed value, the sequence of pseudo-random numbers will be repeated. If rand() is called
before any calls to srand() have been made, the same sequence will be generated as when srand() is first called with a seed value of 1.
The rand_r() function has the same functionality as rand() except that a pointer to a seed seed must be supplied by the caller. If
rand_r() is called with the same initial value for the object pointed to by seed and that object is not modified between successive calls
to rand_r(), the same sequence as that produced by calls to rand() will be generated.
The rand() and srand() functions provide per-process pseudo-random streams shared by all threads. The same effect can be achieved if all
threads call rand_r() with a pointer to the same seed object. The rand_r() function allows a thread to generate a private pseudo-random
stream by having the seed object be private to the thread.
USAGE
The spectral properties of rand() are limited. The drand48(3C) function provides a better, more elaborate random-number generator.
When compiling multithreaded applications, the _REENTRANT flag must be defined on the compile line. This flag should be used only in mul-
tithreaded applications.
