Sample<TGenerator>(TGenerator)

Returns a random sample from the distribution using the provided generator.

protected override int Sample<TGenerator>(
	ref TGenerator generator
)
where TGenerator : struct, new(), IRandomGenerator

Visual Basic

Protected Overrides Function Sample(Of TGenerator As {Structure, New, IRandomGenerator}) ( 
	ByRef generator As TGenerator
) As Integer

C++/CLI

protected:
generic<typename TGenerator>
where TGenerator : value class, gcnew(), IRandomGenerator
virtual int Sample(
	TGenerator% generator
) override

abstract Sample : 
        generator : 'TGenerator byref -> int  when 'TGenerator : struct, new() and IRandomGenerator
override Sample : 
        generator : 'TGenerator byref -> int  when 'TGenerator : struct, new() and IRandomGenerator

Parameters

generator TGenerator: A reference to a struct implementing IRandomGenerator used to produce uniform variates.

Type Parameters

TGenerator: The underlying generator type of the random source, used to enable optimizations like inlining.

Return Value

Int32
A signed 32-bit integer random variate.

Remarks

Implementations may override this method to provide a more efficient or specialized sampling algorithm that consumes raw uniform variates from generator.
