R忽略设置 .Random.seed
在一个lapply里面。运用 set.seed
但是,工作正常。
一些代码:
# I can save the state of the RNG for a few seeds
seed.list <- lapply( 1:5, function(x) {
set.seed(x)
seed.state <- .Random.seed
print( rnorm(1) )
return( seed.state )})
#[1] -0.6264538
#[1] -0.8969145
#[1] -0.9619334
# But I get different numbers if I try to restore
# the state of the RNG inside of an lapply
tmp.rest.state <- lapply(1:5, function(x) {
.Random.seed <- seed.list[[x]]
print(rnorm(1))})
# [1] -0.2925257
# [1] 0.2587882
# [1] -1.152132
# lapply is just ignoring the assignment of .Random.seed
.Random.seed <- seed.list[[3]]
print( rnorm(1) ) # The last printed value from seed.list
# [1] -0.9619334
print( rnorm(1) ) # The first value in tmp.rest.state
# [1] -0.2925257
我的目标是检查点MCMC运行,以便它们可以完全恢复。我可以很容易地保存RNG的状态,我只是不能让R在一个lapply循环中加载它!
有没有办法强制R注意设置 .Random.seed
?或者有更简单的方法来实现这一目标吗?
如果重要,我使用的是64位R:
