getstream(current) vs. getstream()

[ FlexSim 22.1.0 ]

What is the difference between

getstream(current)

getstream()

What is the default stream in v 22.0.1

Thanks

getstream() is invalid syntax - it needs an object parameter (current in your example) so that it can create a reference for a new stream number that it stores centrally against that object. The stream represents a unique progression of random numbers. There's no such thing as a default stream unless you are referring to stochastic functions where the stream parameter is optional. In those cases - it's the same as any other optional numeric parameter - it will be evaluated as zero.

if you have a statistical distribution and you don't set a number generator, then the default random number generator is 0.

What if I want the output label to as following

(1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2......)
I made the trigger to send item by 50% percentage
but I want it to be identically split.

This has nothing to do with the question about getstream().

You choose "round robin" on the sendtoport.

Please do the tutorials and in future post a new question after searching this site and the documentation.
