Is it possible, from .NET, to mimic the exact randomization that Java uses? I have a seed, and I would like to be able to recieve the same results in both C# and Java when creating a random number.

If you have the source code of the
java.util.Randomclass for your Java implementation, you can easily port it to .NET.If you require both applications (Java and .NET) to use a certain random number generator, you’d better implement one in both platforms and use it instead, as the system provided version might change its behavior as a result of an update.(Looks like the Java specification precisely describes the behavior of its PRNG.)
