Thread: Rand() functions returning same numbers - I have used srand()!

Hello, I'm programming a game at school, and I have enemys spawning randomly according to the rand() function called each time in the gameloop.

The problem is, the rand function returns same numbers frequently. Here's a example of the output:

r: 6015
r: 13708
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 13708
r: 31495
r: 29414
r: 31944
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 6015
r: 13708
r: 31495
r: 29414
r: 31944
r: 27474
r: 6422
r: 2510


as you can see the number 6015 is appearing quite frequently.

The code is about this:

Code:

#include <time.h>

int main(){
     srand(time(0));
     while(...){
           cout << rand() << endl;
           ...delay...
           }
}

I suppose there is more relevant information, but I don't know exactly what is important, and I can't post the whole program, so if you require more information, please let me know.

Thanks!

Problem solved, I accidently called srand() at another place
