Constructor Details

MultiplyWithCarry256

public MultiplyWithCarry256(int[] seed)

Creates a new instance.

Parameters:

seed - Seed. If the length is larger than 257, only the first 257 elements will be used; if smaller, the remaining elements will be automatically set.

Method Details

getStateInternal

protected byte[] getStateInternal()

Creates a snapshot of the RNG state.

Overrides:

getStateInternal in class IntProvider

Returns:

the internal state.

setStateInternal

protected void setStateInternal(byte[] s)

Resets the RNG to the given state.

Overrides:

setStateInternal in class IntProvider

Parameters:

s - State (previously obtained by a call to BaseProvider.getStateInternal()).

next

public int next()

Return the next random value.

Returns:

the next random value.
