RanLux24 Class

Represents a RanLux pseudo-random number generator

Definition

Namespace: Numerics.NET.Random
Assembly: Numerics.NET (in Numerics.NET.dll) Version: 9.0.3
C#
public class RanLux24 : ExtendedRandom
Inheritance
Object  →  Random  →  ExtendedRandom  →  RanLux24

Remarks

Use the RanLux class to represent a pseudo-random number generator based on M. Luescher's second generation version of the RANLUX random number generator.

The RanLux generator produces random blocks of 24 bits. It has a period of over 10166.

RanLux can be used in place of the Random class to obtain pseudo-random numbers of a higher quality.
