Same seed, different OS, different random numbers in R

Question

I was experiencing inconsistent results between two machines and a linux server, until I realized that fixing the seed was having different effects. I am running different R versions in all of them, all above 3.3.0. Here are the examples:

Linux 1

Linux gives a different random number generation from the same seed, thus making the result of a script run on it not fully reproducible (depending on the OS in which they are re-run, the results will agree or not). This is annoying.

I do not know what is happening here. Particularly:

• (1) Is it an issue with R's versions or something more involved?
• (2) How can this inconsistent behaviour be avoided? Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

From docs:

Random docs:

RNGversion can be used to set the random generators as they were in an earlier R version (for reproducibility).

So try this on all systems:

set.seed(10, kind = "Mersenne-Twister", normal.kind = "Inversion"); rnorm(1)
[1] 0.01874617
