Description
Seed the random number generator.
Syntax
Randomize[(Number)]
Returns
None
Parameters
Name |
Type |
Optional |
Meaning |
Number |
Numeric |
Yes |
If number is not specified, the value returned by the TIMER function is used. |
Remarks
Values returned by the random number generator depend on an initial seed value.
For a given seed value, RND or RNDF always returns the same sequence of values, yielding a predictable pseudo-random number sequence. Thus, any program that depends on RND or RNDF will run exactly the same way each time unless a different seed is given.
