When i try using the random number generator I receive two errors
the first one:missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
the second : 'srand' : redefinition; previous definition was 'function'

i have the ctime lib being called

to declare the generator I have: This line i copied from another program that works fine.
srand (time(0));

the program then goes to a function called GetTheNumber()
in main I have it coded as generated = GetTheNumber();

in the GetTheNumber function
int GetTheNumber ()
{
int generated;
generated = 1 + rand() % 1000;
return generated;
}

I want the numbers betweet 1 and 1000 randomly generated.

When I look at the other program everything looks the same. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance
 
Thanks for responding I had srand(time(0)) outside of main instead of putting it inside. Once I moved the code it worked;.
