Re: [PD] Different [random] behaviour between macOS & linux?

Ah ha, wait a second, my apologies, I completely misunderstood this response. Never mind - when I quit and restart Pd the behaviour is exactly the same on Mac and Linux, and I now understand that this is how it should be. Previously I was just closing the *patch* on Mac rather than quitting Pd e

OK thanks, it’s good to know the expected behaviour. It certainly works that way on Mac, but I’m reasonably certain that it is not working that way on Linux (at least on the most recent version available on raspberry pi). Images attached that show the behaviour on Linux - I launch the simple ra

Each time a [random] is created it gets a new (pseudo-random) seed - so if you want total repeatability you should exit and restart Pd. Then you should see exactly the same behavior on linux and on Mac. cheers Miller On Thu, Mar 10, 2022 at 12:04:15PM +0100, Yann Seznec wrote: > Hi! Here's thing

[PD] Different [random] behaviour between macOS & linux?

2022-03-10 Thread Yann Seznec
Hi! Here's thing I’m confused about…if I use [random] to generate some numbers on startup, it appears to have different behaviour on macOS and on linux (running on a raspberry pi). With a very simple patch generate a stream of random numbers using [random] (with no seed) and printing to consol
