Member Function Documentation

unsigned long setSeed ( unsigned long seed )

virtual

Set the seed of the random number generator to seed. If seed is 0, then the system time is used to generate a seed to imitate real randomness. Returns the seed.

Implements RandomBase.

unsigned long integer ( void )

virtual

Returns a uniformly distributed random integer between min() and max().

Implements RandomBase.

References RandomGSL::Rng.

unsigned long integer ( unsigned long int max )

inline

Returns a uniformly distributed random integer between 0 and max exclusively. This function is NOT virtual in order to speed up computation.

unsigned long min ( void ) const

virtual

The minimum value integer() returns.

Implements RandomBase.

References RandomGSL::Rng.

unsigned long max ( void ) const

virtual

The maximum value integer() returns.

Implements RandomBase.

unsigned long operator() ( unsigned long n )

inline

Returns an uniformly distributed integer random number between zero and n. The range includes 0 but excludes n. This operator conforms to the STL RandomNumberGenerator specification. This function is NOT virtual in order to speed up computation.

double operator() ( void )

inline

Returns a uniformly distributed random number between zero and one. The range includes 0.0 but excludes 1.0. This operator is NOT virtual in order to speed up computation.

double uniform ( void )

virtual

Returns a uniformly distributed random number between zero and one. The range includes 0.0 but excludes 1.0.

Implements RandomBase.

double positive ( void )

inline

Returns a uniformly distributed random number between zero and one. The range excludes both 0.0 and 1.0 This function is NOT virtual in order to speed up computation.

double gaussian ( void )

virtual

Returns a unit gaussian distributed random number.

Implements RandomBase.

References RandomGSL::Rng.

double gaussian ( double sigma )

inline

Returns a gaussian distributed random number with standard deviation sigma.

double exponential ( void )

virtual

Returns an exponential distributed random number with mean one.

Reimplemented from RandomBase.

References RandomGSL::Rng.

double exponential ( double mu )

inline

Returns an exponential distributed random number with mean mu.

double gamma ( double a )
