Programming and Random

• One of the problems with programming with randomness is that you often can't reproduce a bug.
• The standard way to get repeatable systems is to use a seed when you create the random number generator.
• When you run it again, you get the same random numbers in the same order.
• If you change the seed, you get new random numbers.
• When you're done debugging, you can remove the seed and every time you run, you'll get a new set of random numbers.
