trestletech df70d7708d Result of running roxygen2md(scope = "none")
Enables markdown. Only observed one non-whitespace difference on a line
that had used backticks previously which were previously not being
parsed as a code block.

\title{Make a random number generator repeatable}
\usage{
repeatable(rngfunc, seed = stats::runif(1, 0, .Machine$integer.max))
}
\arguments{
\item{rngfunc}{The function that is affected by the R session's seed.}
\item{seed}{The seed to set every time the resulting function is called.}
}
\value{
A repeatable version of the function that was passed in.
}
\description{
Given a function that generates random data, returns a wrapped version of
that function that always uses the same seed when called. The seed to use can
be passed in explicitly if desired; otherwise, a random number is used.
}
\note{
When called, the returned function attempts to preserve the R session's
current seed by snapshotting and restoring
\code{\link[base]{.Random.seed}}.
}
