class std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >"A model of a linear congruential random number generator.

A random number generator that produces pseudorandom numbers via linear function:  [
   x_{i+1}leftarrow(ax_{i} + c) bmod m  ]

The template parameter _UIntType must be an unsigned integral type large enough to store values up to (__m-1). If the template parameter __m is 0, the modulus __m used is std::numeric_limits<_UIntType>::max() plus 1. Otherwise, the template parameters __a and __c must be less than __m.

The size of the state is $1$.

C++11

The type of the generated random value.

Constructs a linear_congruential_engine random number generator engine with seed 1.

Constructs a linear_congruential_engine random number generator engine with seed __s. The default seed value is 1.

Parameters

References std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >::seed().

Constructs a linear_congruential_engine random number generator engine seeded from the seed sequence __q.

Parameters

References std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >::seed().

Discard a sequence of random numbers.

Gets the largest possible value in the output range.

Gets the smallest possible value in the output range. The minimum depends on the __c parameter: if it is zero, the minimum generated must be > 0, otherwise 0 is allowed.

Gets the next random number in the sequence.

Reseeds the linear_congruential_engine random number generator engine sequence using values from the seed sequence __q.

Parameters

     " Seeds the LCR engine with a value generated by __q.

References std::__lg().

Reseeds the linear_congruential_engine random number generator engine sequence to the seed __s.

Parameters

Seeds the LCR with integral value __s, adjusted so that the ring identity is never a member of the convergence set.

Referenced by std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >::linear_congruential_engine(), and std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >::linear_congruential_engine().

Writes the textual representation of the state x(i) of x to __os.

Parameters

Returns

Compares two linear congruential random number generator objects of the same type for equality.

Parameters

Returns

true if the infinite sequences of generated values would be equal, false otherwise.

Sets the state of the engine by reading its textual representation from __is. The textual representation must have been previously written using an output stream whose imbued locale and whose type's template specialization arguments _CharT and _Traits were the same as those of __is.

Parameters

Returns

An increment.

The modulus.

The multiplier.
