To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file: (Note that the incantation above won’t work if you’ve already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

Reasons for using the set.seed function

The need is the possible desire for reproducible results, which may for example come from trying to debug your program, or of course from trying to redo what it does: These two results we will “never” reproduce as I just asked for something “random”: These two, however, are identical because I set the seed: There is … Read more
