random seed

[ahmed80]

hi
i want to creatE identical random number using identical seed.
Random rand = new Random();
long rseed = rand.nextLong();
rand.setSeed(rseed);

THEN I WILL PASS RAND TO OTHER FUNCTION:
Random chRandom1 = new Random();
chRandom1.setSeed(rand.nextLong());

i am confused what are the output for these

Well, that's not the way to do it. Simply define a long (any value you want) and use that number as the parameter for the Random(long) constructor for both variables.
