19	Global rnd object is not seedable/randomizable	Mihaly Barasz	Balazs Dezso	"random.h provides a global instance of Random, which is indeed convenient, but pretty much useless now. As there is no way to provide a seed for it. So you'll get the same sequence every time you run your program.

I suggest to create a seed(...) method(s) to the Random class, which would reseed the sequence.

Please, also consider the possibility to implement some kind of randomize() method, to seed the sequence by pid of the process, timeofday etc. Sure, this is not cryptographically secure, but very convenient for doing simulations...
