The rand and random functions only return exact (integer) values.

(rand . modulus)
Computes a random number from 0 to modulus-1. If modulus is not specified, it 
returns a value in the range of 0 to 2^31-1

(random modulus)
Computes a random number from 0 to modulus-1. Unlike the rand function, 
modulus is not optional.
