FWIW，答案是肯定的，有一个stdlib.h函数叫rand;此函数主要针对速度和分布进行调优，而不是针对不可预测性。几乎所有语言和框架的内置随机函数都默认使用这个函数。还有“加密”随机数生成器，它们的可预测性要低得多，但运行速度要慢得多。在任何类型的与安全相关的应用程序中都应该使用它们。

注意:为了安全性，不要使用rand()。如果您需要加密安全的号码，请参阅此答案。

#include <time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

srand(time(NULL));   // Initialization, should only be called once.
int r = rand();      // Returns a pseudo-random integer between 0 and RAND_MAX.

在Linux上，您可能更喜欢使用random和srandom。

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<time.h>

//generate number in range [min,max)
int random(int min, int max){
    int number = min + rand() % (max - min);
    return number; 
}

//Driver code
int main(){
    srand(time(NULL));
    for(int i = 1; i <= 10; i++){
        printf("%d\t", random(10, 100));
    }
    return 0;
}

如果您需要128个安全随机位，符合RFC 1750的解决方案是读取已知可以生成可用熵位的硬件源(例如旋转磁盘)。更好的是，好的实现应该使用混合函数组合多个源，并最终通过重新映射或删除输出来消除输出分布的倾斜。

如果你需要更多的比特，你需要做的就是从128个安全随机比特的序列开始，并将其拉伸到所需的长度，将其映射到人类可读的文本等等。

如果你想在C中生成一个安全的随机数，我将遵循这里的源代码:

https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/MSC30-C.+Do+not+use+the+rand%28%29+function+for+generating+pseudorandom+numbers

注意，对于Windows bbcryptgenrandom是使用的，而不是CryptGenRandom，在过去的20年里已经变得不安全。您可以亲自确认BCryptGenRandom符合RFC 1750。

For POSIX-compliant operating systems, e.g. Ubuntu (a flavor of Linux), you can simply read from /dev/urandom or /dev/random, which is a file-like interface to a device that generates bits of entropy by combining multiple sources in an RFC 1750 compliant fashion. You can read a desired number of bytes from these "files" with read or fread just like you would any other file, but note that reads from /dev/random will block until a enough new bits of entropy are available, whereas /dev/urandom will not, which can be a security issue. You can get around that by checking the size of the available entropy pool, either my reading from entropy_avail, or by using ioctl.

<stdlib.h>中的rand()函数返回一个介于0和RAND_MAX之间的伪随机整数。你可以使用srand(unsigned int seed)来设置种子。

通常的做法是将%操作符与rand()结合使用以获得不同的范围(但请记住，这在一定程度上破坏了一致性)。例如:

/* random int between 0 and 19 */
int r = rand() % 20;

如果你真的在乎一致性，你可以这样做:

/* Returns an integer in the range [0, n).
 *
 * Uses rand(), and so is affected-by/affects the same seed.
 */
int randint(int n) {
  if ((n - 1) == RAND_MAX) {
    return rand();
  } else {
    // Supporting larger values for n would requires an even more
    // elaborate implementation that combines multiple calls to rand()
    assert (n <= RAND_MAX)

    // Chop off all of the values that would cause skew...
    int end = RAND_MAX / n; // truncate skew
    assert (end > 0);
    end *= n;

    // ... and ignore results from rand() that fall above that limit.
    // (Worst case the loop condition should succeed 50% of the time,
    // so we can expect to bail out of this loop pretty quickly.)
    int r;
    while ((r = rand()) >= end);

    return r % n;
  }
}

下面是我的方法(围绕rand()的包装器):

我还扩展到允许min为INT_MIN而max为INT_MAX的情况，这通常不可能单独使用rand()，因为它返回从0到RAND_MAX的值，包括(1/2范围)。

像这样使用它:

const int MIN = 1;
const int MAX = 1024;
// Get a pseudo-random number between MIN and MAX, **inclusive**.
// Seeding of the pseudo-random number generator automatically occurs
// the very first time you call it.
int random_num = utils_rand(MIN, MAX);

定义和氧描述:

int utils_rand(int min, int max)

        first_run = false;
    }

    int range = max - min + 1;
    int random_num = rand();  // random num from 0 to RAND_MAX, inclusive

    if (range > RAND_MAX)
    {

            "This must be true or else the below mapping/scaling may have undefined overflow "
            "and not work properly. In such a case, try casting to `long long int` instead of "
            "just `long int`, and update this static_assert accordingly.");

    // This is presumably a faster approach than the map/scaling function above, so do this faster
    // approach below whenever you don't **have** to do the more-complicated approach above.
    random_num %= range;
    random_num += min;
