•
? Seek to a random block offset within the
specified range of blocks. exer calls the program,
random, to “deal” each of a set of numbers once. exer
chooses a set that is a power of two and is greater
than or equal to the block range. Each call to random
results in a number that is then mapped to the set of
numbers that are in the block range and exer seeks
to that location in the filestream. Since exer starts
with the same random number seed, the set of
random numbers generated will always be over the
same set of block range numbers.
•
s Sleep for a number of milliseconds specified by
the delay qualifier. If no delay qualifier is present,
sleep for 1 millisecond. Times as reported in verbose

action character is used.
