Thanks for your suggestion, but it doesn't matter whether you call seed() or not. The random number generator can *not* return 10 equal values if called 10 times, irrespective of the fact that it is initalized or not. You can try by simply doing: import random print random.random() print random.random() print random.random() And you'll see that the numbers are different. Moreover, I can populate that list by hand with 10 values like: therand = [ii for ii in xrange(1, 11)] And the result in Excel will be the same. All the cells will have the value 1. Andrea.
