Detailed Description

template<typename _UIntType, _UIntType __a, _UIntType __c, _UIntType __m>

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 $1$.

template<typename _UIntType , _UIntType __a, _UIntType __c, _UIntType __m> std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >::linear_congruential_engine () [inline]

Constructs a linear_congruential_engine random number generator engine with seed 1.

template<typename _UIntType , _UIntType __a, _UIntType __c, _UIntType __m> std::linear_congruential_engine< _UIntType, __a, __c, __m >::linear_congruential_engine (result_type __s) [inline], [explicit]

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

Parameters

__s The initial seed value.
