This is very near but it always show first value bigger one, is it possible will show equal near about equal numbers, lets suppose if my value is 501752 so it first shows 408086, and rest of 29 values are too small, is it possible all 30 values should be 5 digits base.

Im new to C, and Im having a hard time getting a random number.
In bash, I would do something similar to the following to get a random number;

SEED=`expr $seed1 * $seed2 / $seed3`
echo ${SEED%.*}

Random(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Random(3)
NAME
Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA - RSA encoding and decoding, using the openSSL libraries
Crypt::OpenSSL::Random - Routines for accessing the OpenSSL pseudo-random number generator
SYNOPSIS
use Crypt::OpenSSL::Random;
Crypt::OpenSSL::Random::random_seed($good_random_data);
Crypt::OpenSSL::Random::random_egd("/tmp/entropy");
Crypt::OpenSSL::Random::random_status() or
die "Unable to sufficiently seed the random number generator".
my $ten_good_random_bytes = Crypt::OpenSSL::Random::random_bytes(10);
my $ten_ok_random_bytes = Crypt::OpenSSL::Random::random_pseudo_bytes(10);
DESCRIPTION
Crypt::OpenSSL::Random provides the ability to seed and query the OpenSSL library's pseudo-random number generator
EXPORT
None by default.
Static Methods
random_bytes
This function, returns a specified number of cryptographically strong pseudo-random bytes from the PRNG. If the PRNG has not been
seeded with enough randomness to ensure an unpredictable byte sequence, then a false value is returned.
random_pseudo_bytes
This function, is similar to c<random_bytes>, but the resulting sequence of bytes are not necessarily unpredictable. They can be used
for non-cryptographic purposes and for certain purposes in cryptographic protocols, but usually not for key generation etc.
random_seed
This function seeds the PRNG with a supplied string of bytes. It returns true if the PRNG has sufficient seeding. Note: calling this
function with non-random bytes is of limited value at best!
random_egd
This function seeds the PRNG with data from the specified entropy gathering daemon. Returns the number of bytes read from the daemon
on succes, or -1 if not enough bytes were read, or if the connection to the daemon failed.
random_status
This function returns true if the PRNG has sufficient seeding.
BUGS
Because of the internal workings of OpenSSL's random library, the pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) accessed by Crypt::OpenSSL::Random
will be different than the one accessed by any other perl module. Hence, to use a module such as Crypt::OpenSSL::Random, you will need to
seed the PRNG used there from one used here. This class is still advantageous, however, as it centralizes other methods, such as
random_egd, in one place.
