What's a good uniform alternative to rand() in C?

Would be grateful if people could point me to more resources on procedural image generation, preferably something genetic/evolution based.

All animals create carbon dioxide clouds around them with this technique called breathing.

How does this compare with xarray?

The singular of maxima is maximum.

Oh no, Kolmogorov is referred to as Komolgoroff in item 105.

I decided to try to replicate this on my iPhone and looks like Acrobat Reader and the Readdle PDF viewer both use Facebook SDK and send data automatically.

Upvoted you, I asked myself the same question. Looks like a bot that annoys bloggers by notifying them that their writing is trending on various aggregators.

Tangential, but Tao is such a great teacher of mathematics and person. A rare combination of skill and modesty. Highly recommend his analysis and measure theory textbooks.

Informally, the overwhelming majority of real numbers are irrational.

Not only that, we should expect to always get an irrational number, but always get rationals from a finite subset of Q. I recently asked a closely related question on Math.SE:
