cvxbook_additional_exercises's Issues

Julia random number generator changed

Many of the Julia data files were generated pre-1.7. In version 1.7, the default random number generator was changed, so starting with the same seed does not yield the same values post vs. pre-1.7. When I submit updates to the Julia data files, should I use the old (MersenneTwister) or the new default (Xoshiro256++)?
