Alias std.random.MinstdRand
Define LinearCongruentialEngine generators with well-chosen
parameters. MinstdRand0
implements Park and Miller's "minimal
standard" generator that uses 16807 for the multiplier. MinstdRand
implements a variant that has slightly better spectral behavior by
using the multiplier 48271. Both generators are rather simplistic.
Example
// seed with a constant
auto rnd0 = MinstdRand0(1);
auto n = rnd0 .front;
// same for each run
writeln(n); // 16807
// Seed with an unpredictable value
rnd0 .seed(unpredictableSeed);
n = rnd0 .front; // different across runs
