In this case, how do I choose numbers to make sure set_seed(n1,n2) and set.seed(n) produce the same result ? I am asking because my C code worked correctly if I compile it to produce .exe file and ran it , but it gave strange results if it is compiled to .dll file and dynamically loaded into R and call with .C( ). To debug, I need to let them produce the same random number under two different situation so I can tell what is wrong in R.
Thanks a lot. ----- Original Message ----- From: Prof Brian Ripley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Monday, May 14, 2007 9:40 pm Subject: Re: [Rd] set_seed To: Tong Wang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: R-devel <r-devel@r-project.org> > On Mon, 14 May 2007, Tong Wang wrote: > > > Hi, All: > > > It seemed set_seed is usable only when Rmath is used as a > standalone > > library, then what should I use when I need to link to R.dll. > > When you link to R.dll you are running R, so you can call > set.seed() via > eval or via do_setseed. > > -- > Brian D.
