Description

Produce Reproducible Seeds for Parallel Random Number Generation

Usage

make_rng_seeds(count, seed = FALSE, debug = getOption("future.debug",
  FALSE))

Arguments

count

The number of RNG seeds to produce.

seed

A logical specifying whether RNG seeds should be generated or not. (seed = NULL corresponds to seed = FALSE). If a list, then it should be of length count and each element should consist of a valid RNG seed.

debug

If TRUE, debug output is produced, otherwise not.
