If I'm not mistaken, the seed will be the current time since 1/1/1970 in seconds.

time(0) gives the time in seconds since the date Hatsy stated
and that is also the reason you should use the srand function once and not in a loop.
repeating it means you resetting the seed which in turn, would cause generating the same number with the rand() function IF the srand was used with the same time
