- Subject: Just how predictable is Lua's random function

Just as the subject says, I'm curious just exactly how predictable the random function is given a known seed. If I use the same seed on all platforms (Windows, Linux, and Mac) can I expect the next N calls to random to always generate the same values? This seems to be the case on Windows, but I can't validate it on the other platforms (yet).
Thanks,
Jeremy
