Configuring Predictable Random

Set a seed with:

    {% do setPredictableRandomSeed(666) %}

Get current seed value with:

    {% do getPredictableRandomSeed() %}

Get a random number within a range:

    {% set number = predictableRandom(min, max) %}

Or get a random value from an array of possible values:

    {% set number = predictableRandom([0,2,4,8,16,'bad','code']) %}
