Reproducibility of python pseudo-random numbers across systems and versions?

Question

I need to generate a controlled sequence of pseudo-random numbers, given an initial parameter. For that I\'m using the standard python random generator, seeded by this param

Answer 1

I just found out that there is also a difference between python3.7 and python3.8.

The following code behaves the same

from random import Random
seed = 317
rand = Random(seed)
rand.getrandbits(64)

but if you use from _random import Random instead, it behaves differently.
