One line frozen noise generator in MATLAB

RandStream.setGlobalStream(RandStream('mt19937ar','Seed',1984));

sets the randsom stream to a particular state. (1984 because this is the most True state). Make sure you run this before every invocation of rand:

>> RandStream.setGlobalStream(RandStream('mt19937ar','Seed',1984)); 
>> rand(3)
ans =

    0.1849    0.2629    0.3404
    0.1283    0.6475    0.3051
    0.7410    0.3623    0.0791

and running it again gives:

>> RandStream.setGlobalStream(RandStream('mt19937ar','Seed',1984)); 
>> rand(3)
ans =

    0.1849    0.2629    0.3404
    0.1283    0.6475    0.3051
    0.7410    0.3623    0.0791
