`void`	`setSeed(long seed)`	Set the seed for the generation.

- Method Detail
  - generate
```
T generate(S mas,
           SimulationParameters params)
```
    Generates a new agent for the given multi-agent system.
    
    Parameters:
    
    mas - some multi-agent system.
    
    params - this object can be used for sharing parameters across the generating components of a simulation.
    
    Returns:
    
    an agent for type T
  - setSeed
```
void setSeed(long seed)
```
    Set the seed for the generation. Every two runs of generations with the same seed are ensured to be identical.
    
    Parameters:
    
    seed - some seed.
