Setting a seed for sample function #255

Some hierarchical modeling techniques require evaluating different statistics on the same sample of the posterior. Currently, there is no seed to set for the sample function.

I confirmed the code is using numpy for sampling. As a temporary fix, you can set np.random.seed(n) before running the sample function each time if you need the same samples.
