Generate a random, or sequential, number

By default, this function will return a random number between $start and $end inclusively. If you set the realistic_dummy_content_api_rand variable to REALISTIC_DUMMY_CONTENT_SEQUENTIAL, for example for automated tested or in a recipe (an example can be found at realistic_dummy_content/recipe/realistic_dummy_content.recipe.inc), then this will call realistic_dummy_content_api_sequential().

See the documentation for realistic_dummy_content_api_sequential() for details.

Parameters

$start: The first possible number in the range.

$end: The last possible number in the range.

$hash = NULL: Ignored for random numbers; for sequential numbers, please se the documentation for realistic_dummy_content_api_sequential() for details.

Return value

A random number by default, or a sequential number if you set the realistic_dummy_content_api_rand variable to REALISTIC_DUMMY_CONTENT_SEQUENTIAL. Please see the description of realistic_dummy_content_api_sequential() for details.
