Random Number Generator SEED

Good Day !!

After having determined that Oracle does not have a random number generator, I programed one. The generator (after being given a seed) will provide a number between 0 and 1.

The seed has to be between 1 and 2,147,483,647. I was thinking of using the milliseconds stamp off of the computer however, It seems that Oracle doesn't have a function to do this.

Has anyone figure out a way around this issue.

If you have, please let me know at the EMAIL address below

Thanks in advance for all your help
