Does the current seeding conform to some informal standard? Do we want to generate same sequences as other mersenne twister implementations, or is it only an issue of whether or not we want to change seeding and generate different sequences than earlier GMP versions? > I though you can't ever have limbs less than 16 bits. Are any of these in use? I think we can use even smaller limbs for testing purposes, with mp_limb_t defined as some magic C++ type. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred.
