Subject: Re: 64-bit random number in .NET

Go up one level in this thread

When programmers code their own PRNGs, do they normally provide the seed so that
every time the program is run, it will create the same series of random numbers?
 I guess I'm asking whether or not it's important to be able to reproduce the
same random number stream.

Is it desirable, or would there be any advantage, to use a cryptographic RNG?
