Hi folks, Given the same set of inputs, this program is producing different answers in Boost 1.56 as compared to Boost 1.49: #include <boost/random/mersenne_twister.hpp> #include <boost/random/normal_distribution.hpp> int main() { boost::normal_distribution<double> dist(0.0, 1.0); boost::mt19937 gen(0); for (int ii=1; ii <= 5; ++ii) { printf("%2d) %g\n", ii, dist(gen)); } } I've isolated this to a change in the implementation of normal_distribution between these two versions (mt19937 is producing the same sequence of numbers with the same starting seed). My question is, is there any guarantee that this distribution is going to produce the same answers across different versions of Boost, given the same starting seed (zero in this case)? Thanks, Jon
