TRandomAn RNG instance initialized for path Path + [NextIndex].
Implements
IRandomStreamSource<TRandom>.NextStream()Remarks
This method returns an RNG for the current next index, then increments NextIndex by 1. Each call produces a distinct stream.
This is equivalent to:
var index = NextIndex;
var child = Branch(index);
Advance(1);
return child.PrefixStream();
but is typically more efficient.
