I need to generate reproducible random number series.
I've done the obvious - use mt_srand with the same seed. This supposedly
will create the same series every time.
Is this true? Its not working for me.
By the way, seeding mt_srand with different integers doesn't necessarily
produce different series. I've done a little testing and every pair of
consecutive even and odd numbers produces the same series. eg. seed 0 and 1
produce the same series, as does 10000 and 10001.
