Hello, I don't know if it the right mailing list but I am trying to program
a little thing for Linux and I get two problems.
The first is I would like use the function rand and I can't find out
(sorry, I am net very clever you know...) how I can initialize the series
of random number with the clock or something like that. I get each time the
same serie.
My second problem is I would like run another program. So, I use :
pid=fork();
if (pid==1) { //maybe it's zero, I can't remember
execv(myprogram,argv);
exit(0);
}
The problem is when I am doing a ps to see the list of the processus, the
program each time I run it is in the list like a zombie. How it is possible
to finish it completely ?
Thank you very much for your help.
Thomas
