[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58800] BIST for rng sometimes fails

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #58800 (project octave):

This is probably due to the low precision timer on Windows.  If I remember
correctly it is only good to .01 seconds.

To verify, could the original reporter try this simplified example?



N = 100;

for i = 1:N
  rand ("state", "reset"), s1 = rand ("state");
  rand ("state", "reset"), s2 = rand ("state");
  assert (any (s1 != s2));
endfor


I've attached the same code as an m-file.
