A Random element with equal chance of deciding DNA sequence orientation

Question

[vunlebedim1]

I need help on how to write a perl script of random element with a 50:50 chance, like tossing a coin, to decide on the orientation (forward or reverse) of DNA sequence.

How is this bioinformatics, Pierre?

Framed like a basic programming question, perldoc -f rand will be a good start.
