Generate random numbers:
<?phpecho(rand() . "<br>");echo(rand() . "<br>");echo(rand(10,100));?>The rand() function generates random integers.
Tip: If you want a random integer between 10 and 100, inclusive, use rand (10,100).
Tip: The mt_rand() function is a better choice for generating random values, returning results 4 times faster than the rand() function.
