Hello Sergei,

If I create a random number in a HyPhy script and then loop it using a bash submission to HYPHYMP, it appears that the seed does not change (i.e. I get the same random number every time.  However, if I loop within HyPhy, I get a different random number each time.

For example, I bashed nullrandomtest.h (cut and pasted below msg) using the nullrandomtest.sh bash file (cut and pasted below msg) and I got back 10 identical values.  However, when I HYPHYMP the file nullrandomtest_loop.h (cut and pasted below this msg) I get 10 different random numbers.

Am I missing something or is there a way around this?

Respectfully,
Sam

nullrandomtest.sh:
#!/bin/bash
bigcount="0"
while [ $bigcount -lt 10 ]
do
HYPHYMP ./nullrandomtest.h
let bigcount=$bigcount+1
done

nullrandomtest.h:
test = Random(0,1);
fprintf(stdout,test,"\n");

nullrandomtest_loop.h:
for(i=0;i<10;i=i+1)
{
     test = Random(0,1);
     fprintf(stdout,test,"\n");
}
