Re^5: Quantum Weirdness and the Increment Operator in thread
Quantum Weirdness and the Increment Operator  Yes and no.
Unless I use srand, print rand() for 1.. 100; will likely give
me different output for each run of the program. So no, the
output will not be the same. Yes, the output will be 100
random(ish) numbers between 0 and 1.  The return order of keys
%hash since 5.8.something is deliberately randomised, so the
definition of the order is that they will be random.  This is
different to pre-5.8.something in that the order was previously
"an order", that was neither random nor easily predictable, but
was consistant between runs of the same program on a given
build.  The order is both defined, and explainable.  Examin
