public class SeedStrategy
extends AbstractTraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.DecorationStrategy>
implements TraversalStrategy.DecorationStrategy
```
A strategy that resets the specified seed value for Seedable steps, which in turn will produce deterministic results from those steps. It is important to note that when using this strategy that it only guarantees deterministic results from a step but not from an entire traversal. For example, if a graph does no guarantee iteration order for g.V() then repeated runs of g.V().coin(0.5) with this strategy will return the same number of results but not necessarily the same ones. The same problem can occur in OLAP-based traversals where iteration order is not explicitly guaranteed. The only way to ensure completely deterministic results in that sense is to apply some form of order() in these cases
