I am wanting to generate the same random sequence (of numbers or characters) based on a given "seed" value.
Using the standard Randomize function does not seem to have such an option.
For example in C# you can initialize the Random function with a seed value (Random seed c#).
How can I achieve something similar in Delphi, or can you point me to an open source library that can do this.
>Solution :
You only need to assign a particular value to the RandSeed global variable.
Actually, I’m almost surprised you asked, because you clearly know of the Randomize function, the documentation for which states the following:
The random number generator should be initialized by making a call to
Randomize, or by assigning a value toRandSeed.
