Hi,

of course the most common suggestion is to use [date] and [time] from zexy. maybe the better solution is to put those objects into vanilla.. because such an abstraction would be very simple also.
That is my current solution as well, using an abstraction [rand] with [time] to set the seed on loadbang, and [inlet]s and [outlet] for the respective ones in [random].
I have no opinion on the inclusion of these objects into vanilla Pd, I use them exclusively for setting the seed of [random], while I always use [z~] and [limiter~] from zexy, as well as often [list2symbol] and [symbol2list], e.g. for converting symbols to float.
Thanks, Thomas
