William explains what happens now accurately. Changing it is not too hard, but not ready yet. I personally prefer an annotation like # random, but I don't want to submit a patch touching a dozen files with that change. Yet. As for the true random framework that allows random seeds to be specified, that is not my concern :) Nick --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
