[R] function sample: diferences across R versions

[Jose Claudio Faria]

Hi,
I just noticed the difference in a teaching data generation script between
version 3.6.1 and earlier.

#! R version 3.4.3
set.seed(2019); sample(1:10, 1)
[1] 8

#! R version 3.5.1patched
set.seed(2019); sample(1:10, 1)
[1] 8

#! R version 3.5.3patched
set.seed(2019); sample(1:10, 1)
[1] 8

#! R version 3.6.0patched
set.seed(2019); sample(1:10, 1)
[1] 8

#! R version 3.6.1patched
set.seed(2019); sample(1:10, 1)
[1] 9  # <--------------------------------- Here!

Is it a bug?
if not (is a new feature) how can I maintain compatibility between version
3.6.1 and all others?

Regards,

If you have software to deal with statistics, you have arms;
if you have good software, you have arms and legs;
if you have software like R, you have arms, legs and wings...
the height of your flight depends only on you!
