Description

set_state.__doc__

        set_state(state)

        Set the internal state of the generator from a tuple.

        For use if one has reason to manually (re-)set the internal state of
        the bit generator used by the RandomState instance. By default,
        RandomState uses the "Mersenne Twister"[1]_ pseudo-random number
        generating algorithm.

        Parameters
        ----------
        state : {tuple(str, ndarray of 624 uints, int, int, float), dict}
            The `state` tuple has the following items:

            1. the string 'MT19937', specifying the Mersenne Twister algorithm.
            2. a 1-D array of 624 unsigned integers ``keys``.
            3. an integer ``pos``.
            4. an integer ``has_gauss``.
            5. a float ``cached_gaussian``.

            If state is a dictionary, it is directly set using the BitGenerators
            `state` property.

        Returns
        -------
        out : None
            Returns 'None' on success.

        Notes
        -----
        `set_state` and `get_state` are not needed to work with any of the
        random distributions in NumPy. If the internal state is manually altered,
        the user should know exactly what he/she is doing.

        For backwards compatibility, the form (str, array of 624 uints, int) is
        also accepted although it is missing some information about the cached
        Gaussian value: ``state = ('MT19937', keys, pos)``.
