                        double scale)

Constructor with which Sim_system is allowed to set the random number generator's seed

Parameters:

name - The name to be associated with this instance

location - The location of the distribution

scale - The scale of the distribution

Sim_logistic_obj

public Sim_logistic_obj(java.lang.String name,
                        double location,
                        double scale,
                        long seed)

The constructor with which a specific seed is set for the random number generator

Parameters:

name - The name to be associated with this instance

location - The location of the distribution

scale - The scale of the distribution

seed - The initial seed for the generator, two instances with the same seed will generate the same sequence of numbers
