Let me apologize is advance if this is wrong list or has already been addressed etc. rand seems to produce an abnormally high number of zeros, like 20 or 30 per million active perl binary v5.8.0 Build 804 $t = 0; for($k=0;$k<1000000;$k++) { $t = rand(1); if ($t == 0.0) { print "tt $t\n"; } } Thanks -- Jarrett
