Hello Laurens:

I am trying to have full control of results in the sense of getting exactly the same output for a given random seed. Could you please confirm that I got it right: there are only two places where a random generator is used:

  1. When the user wants to initialize Y via Normal distribution.
  2. In vptree.h there is a single line ("Create an arbitrary point...") where a random generator is used.

Thanks,
Nik Tuzov, PhD

Yes, I think those are the only two places where the code is non-deterministic.
