Synopsis
seed(x=None)Initializes the generator state. x can be
any hashable object. When x is
None, and also automatically when module
random is first loaded, seed
uses the current system time to get a seed.
x is normally a long integer up to
27814431486575L. Larger
x values are accepted, but may produce the
same generator states as smaller ones.
