Hi,

My question is about the 'dummy seed' added to the state at the first
time that the function 'ssleay_rand_bytes' is called:
By adding this seed STATE_SIZE/MD_DIGEST_LENGTH times to the state, all
the state is updated, and
st_num=STATE_SIZE.
Therefore, why do we need st_num?
Is the adding of the dummy seed a must?

Thanks,

Liane
