@nicklavers I agree it's not great to assume that the current output is
correct, though I strongly suspect it is. We'd ideally do some analysis to
understand what the expected range of outcomes are given the stochastic process
behind this and write a more robust test. For the moment I'm comfortable just
going with the current output, because a difference is expected here, and more
general parts of the test pass, your fix is obviously addressing a bug, and so
I can't see that it's any worse, at least. I'd welcome more robust analysis but
am OK with getting this in as-is, in practice.
It looks like the SparkR test needs a similar treatment, and then I suspect
it's all good.
