std.random.MersenneTwisterEngine.seed - multiple declarations

Function MersenneTwisterEngine.seed

Seeds a MersenneTwisterEngine object.

void seed (
  UIntType value = defaultSeed
) pure nothrow @nogc @safe;

Note

This seed function gives 2^w starting points (the lowest w bits of the value provided will be used). To allow the RNG to be started in any one of its internal states use the seed overload taking an InputRange.

Function MersenneTwisterEngine.seed

Seeds a MersenneTwisterEngine object using an InputRange.

void seed(T) (
  T range
)
if (isInputRange!T && is(Unqual!(ElementType!T) == UIntType));

Throws

Exception if the InputRange didn't provide enough elements to seed the generator. The number of elements required is the 'n' template parameter of the MersenneTwisterEngine struct.
