Hi Bill, yes. But a better name would be good ("rl" isn;t too descriptive). If I understand it correctly then the function reads a 4-byte random number from /dev/random. On a second thought, wouldn't it be even better to make a separate ⎕FIO entry? Such as random ← ⎕FIO[60] ? It could then be included in the ⎕FIO help (and in apl.info) and one could use it without the need for )COPY rl? Best Regards, Jürgen On 6/21/19 3:46 PM, Bill Daly wrote:
