Enum member std.random.isSeedable

Test if Rng is seedable. The overload taking a SeedType also makes sure that the Rng can be seeded with SeedType.

enum isSeedable(Rng, SeedType) = isUniformRNG!Rng && is(typeof(() { Rng r = void; SeedType s = void; r.seed(s); } ));
enum isSeedable(Rng) = isUniformRNG!Rng && is(typeof(() { Rng r = void; alias SeedType = typeof(r.front); SeedType s = void; r.seed(s); } ));

A seedable random-number generator has the following additional features:

  • it has a 'seed(ElementType)' function

Example

struct validRng
{
    @property uint front() {return 0;}
    @property bool empty() {return false;}
    void popFront() {}

    enum isUniformRandom = true;
}
static assert(!isSeedable!(validRng, uint));
static assert(!isSeedable!(validRng));

struct seedRng
{
    @property uint front() {return 0;}
    @property bool empty() {return false;}
    void popFront() {}
    void seed(uint val){}
    enum isUniformRandom = true;
}
static assert(isSeedable!(seedRng, uint));
static assert(!isSeedable!(seedRng, ulong));
static assert(isSeedable!(seedRng));
