plz help me

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int value = 10;
int main() {
pid_t pid;
 pid = fork();
 if (pid == 0) {
 value = value + 100;
 }
else if (pid > 0) {
value = value -100;
 printf("PARENT: value= %d \n", value); //Line A
 wait (NULL); }
}

    modify the code for timer_test_02.c to allow the time delay between events to be pseudo- random exponential, with a mean time between arrivals of 0.1 second. Change the limit in the time_stamps() function from 5 time-stamps to 10, so that the mean run-time will be about 10*0.1 = 1.0 seconds. Once this is working, you should be able to generate 10 events with a pseudo-random exponential arrival process. The code is: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <time.h> #include <unistd.h> #include...
