# Set the random seed
If you want to set the random seed during training, you can use the following command.
```shell
python ./tools/train.py \
${CONFIG} \ # path of the config file
--cfg-options randomness.seed=2023 \ # set seed to 2023
[randomness.diff_rank_seed=True] \ # set different seeds according to global rank
[randomness.deterministic=True] # set the deterministic option for CUDNN backend
# [] stands for optional parameters, when actually entering the command line, you do not need to enter []
```
`randomness` has three parameters that can be set, with the following meanings.
- `randomness.seed=2023`, set the random seed to 2023.
- `randomness.diff_rank_seed=True`, set different seeds according to global rank. Defaults to False.
- `randomness.deterministic=True`, set the deterministic option for cuDNN backend, i.e., set `torch.backends.cudnn.deterministic` to True and `torch.backends.cudnn.benchmark` to False. Defaults to False. See https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/notes/randomness.html for more details.
