Bugs item #898361, was opened at 2004-02-16 22:44 Message generated for change (Comment added) made by npstrick You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=439479&aid=898361&group_id=44411 Category: Question initialization Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Gustav W Delius (gustav_delius) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: same random number seed for all subquestions Initial Comment: The random number generator appears to be using the same random number seed for all subquestions. The following example displays the problem. sq> h> a:=rand(0..9)(); t> $@a@$ a> a esq> sq> h> a:=rand(0..9)(); t> $@a@$ a> a esq> end> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Neil Strickland (npstrick) Date: 2004-02-22 13:40 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=430681 This is not a bug, it is a feature. The recommendation (explained, without sufficient prominence, in the question syntax documentation) is that all initialisation should be performed in the main question body, before the first sq> tag. If you want different random numbers in parts 1 and 2, you should do something like h> a := rand(1..9)(); b := rand(1..9)(); before the first sq>, and then use a in part 1 and b in part 2. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=439479&aid=898361&group_id=44411 |
