...rom the separate streams. When we need random draws from a particular stream, we set the variable "currentStream" with the function useStream(). The function initSeedStreams creates several objects in the global environment. It sets the integer currentStream, as well as two list objects, startSeeds and currentSeeds. At the outset of the run, startSeeds and currentSeeds are the same thing. When we change the currentStream to a different stream, the currentSeeds vector is updated to remember where that stream was when we stopped drawing numbers from it. Now, for the proof of concept. A workin...
