randomgen.sfmt.SFMT.seed¶

SFMT.seed(seed=None)¶

Seed the generator

Parameters:¶

seed=None¶

Entropy used to initialize the pseudo-random number generator. Can be any integer between 0 and 2**32 - 1 inclusive, an array (or other sequence) of unsigned 32-bit integers, , a SeedSequence instance or None (the default). If seed is None, the 624 32-bit unsigned integers are read from /dev/urandom (or the Windows analog) if available. If unavailable, a hash of the time and process ID is used.

Raises:¶

ValueError – If seed values are out of range for the PRNG.
