Thread: Random numbers not random?

Ok so I have my random generator set within a loop that runs 10 times for my game. How come every time it loops back it generates the same random numbers for each loop. I want it to play 10 DIFFERENT games, by different I mean the players dice should not roll the same values each time.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h> 

int main()
{
    int diceI, diceII, S, dicesum, iwin=0, ilose=0, iwinII=0, iloseII=0, iloseIIpoints=0, iwinIIpoints=0;
    int l;
    int pointin, points=0;
    
    printf("CRAPS\n");
    printf("INSTRUCTIONS: Press S then Enter to begin the game.\n\n");
    
    scanf("%d", &S);
    
    for(l = 0; l < 10; l++)
    {
    
    printf("Start of game %d\n", l);
    
    srand(time(NULL));
      diceI = rand()%(6 - 1 + 1) + 1;
      printf ("You rolled a %d ", diceI);
      diceII = rand()%(6 - 1 + 1) + 1;
      printf ("and a %d. \n", diceII);
    
    dicesum = diceI + diceII;
    pointin = dicesum;
    
    
    if (dicesum == 7) {
        printf("You win!\n\n");
        iwin = iwin + 1;
        }
    else if (dicesum == 11) {
        printf("You win!\n\n");
        iwin = iwin + 1;
        }
    else if (dicesum == 2) {
        printf("You lose.\n\n");
        ilose = ilose + 1;
        }
    else if (dicesum == 3) {
        printf("You lose.\n\n");
        ilose = ilose + 1;
        }
    else if (dicesum == 12) {
        printf("You lose.\n\n");
        ilose = ilose + 1;
        }
    else
    {        
        while (1) {
        diceI = rand()%(6 - 1 + 1) + 1;
        printf ("You rolled a %d ", diceI);
        diceII = rand()%(6 - 1 + 1) + 1;
        printf ("and a %d. \n", diceII);
        dicesum = diceI + diceII;
        
        points = dicesum + points;
        
        if (dicesum == 7) {
            iloseIIpoints = pointin + points;
            printf("You lose. You have earned %d points.\n\n", iloseIIpoints);
            iloseII = iloseII + 1;
            break;
            }
        else if (points >= pointin) {
            iwinIIpoints = points + pointin;
            printf("You win! You have earned %d points.\n\n", iwinIIpoints);
            iwinII = iwinII + 1;
            break;
            }
        else continue;
        
        }
            
    }
    
    }
    
    printf("On your first roll you won %d times.\n", iwin);
    printf("On your first roll you lost %d times.\n", ilose);
    printf("On your second roll you won %d times and earned %d points.\n", iwinII, iwinIIpoints);
    printf("On your second roll you lost %d times and earned %d points.\n", iloseII, iloseIIpoints);
    
    return 0;
}

srand(time(NULL));

you should only do this once, try moving it outside of the loop

isn't this expressioin going to give you the same value 6?

6 - 1 + 1 == 6 ??
