Hi,
I'm currently writing a UCT based go program in Clean to see if it is
feasible to write one in a functional language. This is my first attempt
at functional languages, and I'm having trouble with random numbers.
A mersenne twister module is available for Clean. Once initialized it is
reasonably fast to extract a new random number from the generator.
However, it is about a hundred times slower to initialize it with a new
random seed. Therefore my first attempt at generating random numbers by
storing seeds at tree nodes and creating a new random list and a new
seed each time random numbers are required for mc evaluation is very
slow. The alternative seems to be passing around an index to a global
random list, which is both ugly and complicated. Is there another way?
