Definition

Namespace: Numerics.NET.Random
Assembly: Numerics.NET (in Numerics.NET.dll) Version: 9.0.3

Overload List

NextInt64()Returns a non-negative random integer.
NextInt64(Int64)Returns a non-negative random integer that is less than the specified maximum.
NextInt64(Int64, Int64)Returns a random integer that is within a specified range.

NextInt64

Returns a non-negative random integer.
C#
public override long NextInt64()

Return Value

Int64
A 64-bit signed integer that is greater than or equal to 0 and less than Int64.MaxValue.

NextInt64(Int64)

Returns a non-negative random integer that is less than the specified maximum.
C#
public override long NextInt64(
	long maxValue
)

Parameters

maxValue  Int64
The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. maxValue must be greater than or equal to 0.

Return Value

Int64
A 64-bit signed integer that is greater than or equal to 0, and less than maxValue; that is, the range of return values ordinarily includes 0 but not maxValue. However, if maxValue equals 0, maxValue is returned.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeExceptionmaxValue is less than 0.

NextInt64(Int64, Int64)

Returns a random integer that is within a specified range.
C#
public override long NextInt64(
	long minValue,
	long maxValue
)

Parameters

minValue  Int64
The inclusive lower bound of the random number returned.
maxValue  Int64
The exclusive upper bound of the random number returned. maxValue must be greater than or equal to minValue.

Return Value

Int64
A 64-bit signed integer greater than or equal to minValue and less than maxValue; that is, the range of return values includes minValue but not maxValue. If minValue equals maxValue, minValue is returned.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeExceptionminValue is greater than maxValue.
