A seed in programming is a reference of random, if you force your random to reuse the same seed value, you will get the same "random" result.

If you want a real random you should use #include <ctime> . . srand(time(0)) then your rand will be real rand.

Generally speaking, most programming language do not provide purely random numbers, but *pseudo*random instead. That means they have an internal algorithm to produce a value, based on the previous result. A seed is an initial value for the sequence of those pseudorandom numbers.

Seed is an unsigned integer to pass as parameter in rand function to produce a different sequence of random numbers
