“RandSeed” Command
• You can specify an integer from 0 to 9 for the argument of this command. 0 specifies non-
sequential random number generation. An integer from 1 to 9 uses the specified value as a
seed for specification of sequential random numbers. The initial default argument for this
command is 0.
• The numbers generated by the ClassPad immediately after you specify sequential random
number generation always follow the same random pattern.
