[Numpy-discussion] random.RandomState and deepcopy

2015-03-13 Thread Neal Becker
It is common that to guarantee good statistical independence between various random generators, a singleton instance of an RNG is shared between them. So I typically have various random generator objects, which (sometimes several levels objects deep) embed an instance of RandomState. Now I have
