Seed

Parse a Base-64 encoded seed, returning a Seed value.

This method requires the exact format produced by toBase64 (i.e. a 44-character string using the web-safe Base-64 alphabet). Other encodings must produce precisely the same outputs to be supported.

This method will throw an IllegalArgumentException if parsing fails.

Generate a seed directly from four Long values.

Warning: unlike Seed.apply(Long), this method just directly constructs a seed from the four Long values. Prefer using Seed(Long) if you aren't sure whether these will be good seed values.
