How to fill an array with random immutable values?

IMBABOT :

private void create(){
    byte[] arr = new byte[20];
    new Random().nextBytes(arr);
}

Allways generate random values.

How to create immutable random values?

Arvind Kumar Avinash :

You need a seed value in order to return the same set of bytes.

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Random;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        byte[] arr = new byte[20];

        // Generating a random seed for demo. You can assign a fixed value e.g. 1 to seed.
        int seed = new Random().nextInt(); 

        System.out.println("Going to print the byte array 10 times for the seed " + seed);
        for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
            create(arr, seed);
            System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr));
        }
    }

    private static void create(byte[] arr, int seed) {
        Random random = new Random(seed);
        random.nextBytes(arr);
    }
}
