So, is it correct to assume that for language constructs that create built-in types like Range, Array, Hash etc that user-defined initialize methods are never called?

That fixes it for me. I got no regressions from Rubinius' hash spec

Hi,

comments needed for Random class

Hi all,

# Especially to Technorama Ltd.

We're discussing about introducing Random class for PRNG on ruby-dev ML.

 * current rand and srand changes global state.  it should be the
   source of a security problem sooner or later in this "framework" era.
   (I claimed)
 * Mats agreed to introduce a class for PRNG based on current Mersenne
   Twister implementation.  class name is "Random".
 * no plan to introduce another PRNG based on other PRNG algorithm.
   MT is the only PRNG engine for "Random".
 * we're now discussing what methods "Random" should have.

Here's my proposal (no agreement for now);

Random#integer(max)
Ramdom#bytes(size)
Random#float         # same as Random#rand(0).  not needed?
Random#rand(max = 0)
Random#srand(seed = nil)
Random#seed=(seed = nil) # same as Random#srand(seed)

Random.rand(max = 0) # calls Random#rand(max) of the singleton Random
                     # object which is initialized with the current
                     # srand().

rand(max = nil)      # calls Random.rand(max)
srand()              # srand() now takes no argument for 1.9.

Comments needed.

Regards,
// NaHi
