[Numpy-discussion] random enhancement

2008-02-06 Thread Neal Becker
One thing missing from random is a mechanism to share a single underlying rng with other code that is not part of numpy.random. For example, I have code that generates distributions that expect a mersenne twister (the shared, underlying rng) to be passed in as a constructor argument.
