[Help-gsl] initializing RNG with an array?

[Anye Li]

Hi,

Does anybody know of a way to seed the random number generator with an
array of data, so that the number of sequences available is limited by
the size of the state rather than the range of the RNG?  I see
gsl_rng_memcpy and gsl_rng_fread in the documentation but it seems these
are for restoring a known good state, not for seeding with unknown data.
I'm looking for something along the lines of MT19937's init_by_array.

Thanks
Anye
