[Numpy-discussion] numpy random uniform seed?

Hi, I've been using np.random.uniform and mpi4py. I found that the random number each processor (or rank) generated are the same, so I was wondering how random.uniform chose its seeds. Theoretically, those ranks shouldn't have anything to do with others. The only possibility that I can think of is that they all used the computer time as the seed, so the random numbers were the same. Anyone has more ideas and suggestions on how to correct this? Thanks, Best, Ao -- I am Ao.Liu, always hungry and still waiting for what I've always been believing. To know me more, please visit my little tiny personal website: www.frankliuao.com
