[Numpy-discussion] Numpy random: independent streams

[Ludwig]

The Python standard random API allows me to define multiple independent
random streams, which I can control with their own seed, e.g.

import random
generator_1 = random.Random()
generator_2 = random.Random()

generator_1.seed(100)
generator_2.seed(100)

So now generator_1 and 2 will produce the same sequence.

Is there an equivalent for this in numpy? (Apart from, as it seems, the
oldnumeric package http://numpy.scipy.org/numpydoc/numpy-20.html)?
