Greetings !

When specifying a seed value for the rand function what determines
the effectiveness of the number chosen ? I recently read you can pop
in any number, since the rand function will handle the distribution,
but certainly one number to the next is going to effect the outcome
differently ( or ?).

Thanks !

Ken Tyler
