std::bernoulli_distribution::(constructor)

(1)
explicit bernoulli_distribution (double p = 0.5);
(2)
explicit bernoulli_distribution (const param_type& parm);
Construct bernoulli distribution
Constructs a bernoulli_distribution object with a probability of p (or with the probability specified by object parm).

Parameters

p
Probability of returning true.
This shall be a value between 0.0 and 1.0 (both included).
parm
An object representing the distribution's parameters, obtained by a call to member function param.
param_type is a member type.

#include <random>

int main()

  std::cout << "Please, enter a yes/no question (I will answer it):" << std::endl;

  bool result = distribution(generator);
  std::cout << ( result ? "yes" : "no" ) << std::endl;

}

Possible output:
Please, enter a yes/no question (I will answer it):
Should I buy a new laptop?
