Root Cause

Code does `seed = np.random.seed(42)` then calls `seed()`. np.random.seed returns None, not a callable.

generic

中文

代码执行 `seed = np.random.seed(42)` 后调用 `seed()`。np.random.seed 返回 None，不是可调用对象。

Workarounds

  1. 98% success 
    np.random.seed(42)  # call directly, don't assign
  2. 95% success 
    rng = np.random.default_rng(42)  # modern API

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 60% fail

    Works once but confusing and easy to break

  2. 95% fail

    Calls None, same error
