The C standard library function int rand(void) returns a pseudo random integer between 0 and RAND_MAX (which should be at least 2^15, depending on the actual implementation).
Depending on the distribution of the pseudo random numbers, it will be true for over > 99% of its applications.
Pick a library you already use with many sub-dependencies. Make a new library with your evil code. Name it in line with the step 1 library. Oh hi there “Framework.Microsoft.Extensions.DB.Net.Compatibility” you couldn’t possibly have anything bad going on in you, plus you sound really boring to review, I’m sure it’s fine.
But rand() is a number between 0-1, so it will never be >10
Basically this is just #define True = False

Source: trust me bro, and C++ reference
Furthermore, there is no integer between 0 and 1, but I guess you mean a real number between 0 and 1.
You’re correct in a lot of languages; Excel comes to mind. Just that’s not how
int rand()
works in C.Sorry, I don’t why you’re getting snark and even being accused of using the word “integer”.
I’m not sure what’s worse. The engineer that thought this would work or the company that doesn’t do code reviews.
Put it in a package they depend on - nobody reviews those
