Dear all,<br><br>It appears that the rand (also grand) functions generate equal numbers each time Scilab is launched. (tested in several scilab versions, 4.x and 5.2 under linux)<br>This is not written in the documentation of those functions.<br>
How to reproduce? simply launch scilab, type rand(2,2,'uniform'), exit scilab, launch scilab, type rand(2,2,'uniform') again, values are identical. (same with grand(2,2,'def') for example)<br><br>
Is it an important missing point in the documentation? or a bug of the rand/grand functions?<br>
Or am I missing somethinghere?,<br><br>Regards,<br>Amael<br>
