RE: [Swarm-Support] Random seed generator

[Marshall, James A R]

Michael,
  you can use the --varyseed command line argument to change the random seed
randomly, or supply your own. If you do neither Swarm will use the same seed
each time, hence your results will be reproducible.
  Check out the Swarm FAQ on this topic (and for future queries where
possible):

Subject: [Swarm-Support] Random seed generator


Hi,

I'd like to be able to use the swarm uniform random generator to run the
same 
models more than once, but I would also like to be able to change the seed
of 
the random number generator so that I can run the same model but get
different 
results. Any ideas?

Thanks for any help,
