Reply To: Random seed problem

[Torsten]

Thanks, I get far better results with your workaround. If we change the seed function, we could look what kind of hash functions are used for dictionary types in languages like python. I assume, they use functions which are not cryptographic secure, but have a good uniform distribution and are very fast.

 But you are right, with such a change, the generated randim numbers are different than before, so we have to carefully think about it. Maybe we should prefer a workaround with less impact. Maybe we could integrate your workaround in a new procedure? As a fast and short term solution? This is the way, I use until we fix this problem …
