.. _random-limits-and-troubleshooting: Limits and troubleshooting ========================== ``scikitplot.random`` is a compiled KISS RNG implementation. Import failures on a platform without a compatible extension are packaging/build failures rather than a cue to substitute Python's ``random`` module silently. The implementation consumes ``kissrandom.h`` from the independent C-external Annoy ownership domain. Applications should not depend on that header path. If a restored state is rejected, check state schema/version compatibility before modifying values manually. If parallel runs differ despite fixed seeds, audit where streams are created and how work is scheduled before assuming the RNG itself is non-deterministic.
