#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <random>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int X;

    time_t T;
    time (&T);
    srand(T);

    X = rand() % 11;

    cout << X << endl;
}


what is the & in time (&T) doing? what is it for?

It it passing the address of the variable T. Read up on pointers to learn what the point of it is.
