Hi Marcello,
Indeed if the same SEED is used you get the same results if the same code is taken. However, dirloop_sse was completely rewritten between 1.3 and 2.0. It is a new code. Thus the results should now only agree within error bars.

Dear All,
I was wondering if using the same SEED parameter with the dirloop_sse application in different runs should produce exactly the same results.
It is defined as " The random number seed used in the next run.". But I failed to produce the same results with alps 1.35 or with alps 2.02.
