py_set_seed: Set Python and NumPy random seeds

In reticulate: Interface to 'Python'

Set Python and NumPy random seeds

Description

Set various random seeds required to ensure reproducible results. The provided seed value will establish a new random seed for Python and NumPy, and will also (by default) disable hash randomization.

Usage

py_set_seed(seed, disable_hash_randomization = TRUE)

Arguments

seed	A single value, interpreted as an integer
disable_hash_randomization	Disable hash randomization, which is another common source of variable results. See https://docs.python.org/3/using/cmdline.html#envvar-PYTHONHASHSEED

Details

This function does not set the R random seed, for that you should call set.seed().
