It does not look like your calculation is using the random number generator, so
the other responses are probably more to the point.
However, beware that setting the seed is not enough to guarantee the same
random numbers. You need to also make sure you are using the same uniform RNG
and any o

I would guess the error below is because of Java messing around in the
hardware. It's pretty common on Windows for DLLs to attempt to change
the precision setting on the floating point processor; I hadn't seen
that before on Linux, but that would be my guess as to the cause.
It's also possibl

Here is another example where there is randomness that is not due to
the seed. On the same machine, the same R binary, but through another
interface. First directly in the shell:

Did you actually see some rounding differences?
The lm objects made in the calls to maklm will
differ in the environments attached to the formula
(because you made the formula in the function). If
I change both copies of that .Environment attribute
to .GlobalEnv (or any other environment), then i
