[julia-users] Does the Julia global RNG have a name?

[Tim Wheeler]

Hello Julia Users,

Does the Julia global RNG have a name? Is it possible to do something as 
follows?

function sample_batch!(batch, dataset, rng::AbstractRNG = JULIA_GLOBAL_RNG)
    ...
end

Do I have to do something like this?

function sample_batch!(rng::AbstractRNG, batch, dataset)
    ...
end

function sample_batch!(batch, dataset)
    ...
end

Thanks!
