A randomized seed means the first value of a random generator. The random generator is usually a polynomial that calls himself to generate the next number. Generally speaking a random sequence is:

a0,P(a0),P(P(a0)),...

My trouble is that for me a0 is always the same, so not that random. I need a seed generator like the remainder of microseconds until next Monday or something like that. Most programming languages have such routines.
