Seeded random number generator in ActionScript 3
Recently I needed seeded pseudo-random number generator for my Flex project. After searching I found three good articles with solution of that problem. Grant Skinner proposed use of BitmapData.noise() method. He also provides Parker-Miller psuedo-random number generator based on implementation by Michael Baczynski.
