Hi All,

I have a question about R parallel computing by using snowfall.

How can I set the seeds on parallel workers to get the same result as
sequential mode?

For example:

> sfSapply(c(1,1),rnorm)
[1]  1.823082 -2.222052
> rnorm(2)
[1] -0.5179967 -1.0807196

How to get the identical result?

Thanks.
