[FIXED] Python pandas seed for random generator

Issue

I have a small question re: np.random.seed(seed=x)
I have a df SEED = 1 column of seed numbers
I would like to generate random number after choosing a seed from my df SEED
For example in the first simulation I'll use seed no 100 of the df SEED and in the next simulation, I want to use seed no 200 of the SEED df.
I've been trying out things , but to no avail.
Any hints for me?
Cheers

Solution

It seems you need loop by values of column SEED and set np.random.seed(x):

df = pd.DataFrame({'SEED':[100,200,500]})
print (df)
   SEED
0   100
1   200
2   500

for i, x in df['SEED'].items():
    print (x)
    np.random.seed(x)
    #some random function
    a = np.random.randint(10, size=5)
    print (a)

100
[8 8 3 7 7]
200
[9 0 4 7 9]
500
[7 1 1 8 7]

---

If need generate random value from list:

L = [100,200,500]
a = np.random.choice(L, size=1)[0]
np.random.seed(a)
print (a)
500
