Minimal Standard minstd_rand0 generator
A simple multiplicative congruential pseudo-random number generator (a type of linear_congruential_engine).
The generator has a single value as state, which is modified by its transition algorithm on each advance like x is modified in the following piece of code:
It is an instantiation of the linear_congruential_engine with the following template parameters:
| parameter | name | value | notes |
|---|
| a | multiplier | 16807 | 75 |
| c | increment | 0 | |
| m | modulus | 2147483647 | 231-1 |
Member types
The following alias is a member type of minstd_rand0:
