Details

Bug fixes may influence a generated random stream (see NEWS file, news(package="rstream")). However, it is sometimes necessary to reproduce the same sequence with a newer version of the package. Thus one can switch to this behavior by means of rstream.version.

version is a character string that contains the requested version number. Notice that only the major number and the first minor number are relevant. The string "default" can be used to switch back to the new behavior. When version is omitted than the actual version number is shown.
