Run this add-in to set the random seed to a specified value.
Notes/Disclaimers:
- The add-in can be used to set the random seed prior to creating a validation column, prior to simulating values (using the formula editor or the Simulator), and in many analysis platforms (run prior to launching the platform).
- If using the DOE Custom Designer, use the built in Set Random Seed option.
- If using Partial Least Squares in JMP Pro, use the built in Set Random Seed option for Kfold and Holdback validation.
- Automatic cross-validation using a validation column is only available in JMP Pro.
- The random seed does not persist across analyses (the add-in must be re-run each time using the same random seed).
- Test when using with any analysis platform to verify that you’re seeing the same results.
- Dec 7, 2017: There is a known problem in JMP 13 that can result in different results across different machines and operating systems.
