All Implemented Interfaces:

RandomLongSource, JumpableUniformRandomProvider, RestorableUniformRandomProvider, UniformRandomProvider

Direct Known Subclasses:

XorShift1024StarPhi

public class XorShift1024Star
extends LongProvider
implements JumpableUniformRandomProvider

A fast RNG implementing the XorShift1024* algorithm.

Note: This has been superseded by XorShift1024StarPhi. The sequences emitted by both generators are correlated.

Since:

1.0

Constructor Details

XorShift1024Star

public XorShift1024Star(long[] seed)

Creates a new instance.

Parameters:

seed - Initial seed. If the length is larger than 16, only the first 16 elements will be used; if smaller, the remaining elements will be automatically set. A seed containing all zeros will create a non-functional generator.

XorShift1024Star

protected XorShift1024Star(long[] seed,
 long multiplier)

Creates a new instance.

Parameters:

seed - Initial seed. If the length is larger than 16, only the first 16 elements will be used; if smaller, the remaining elements will be automatically set. A seed containing all zeros will create a non-functional generator.

multiplier - The multiplier for the XorShift1024 algorithm.

Since:

1.3

XorShift1024Star

protected XorShift1024Star(XorShift1024Star source)

Creates a copy instance.

Parameters:

source - Source to copy.

Since:

1.3

Method Details

getStateInternal

protected byte[] getStateInternal()

Creates a snapshot of the RNG state.

Overrides:

getStateInternal in class LongProvider

Returns:

the internal state.

setStateInternal

protected void setStateInternal(byte[] s)

Resets the RNG to the given state.

Overrides:

setStateInternal in class LongProvider

Parameters:

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

See Also:

• BaseProvider.checkStateSize(byte[],int)

next

public long next()

Return the next random value.

Specified by:

next in interface RandomLongSource

Returns:

the next random value.

jump

public UniformRandomProvider jump()

Creates a copy of the UniformRandomProvider and then advances the state of the current instance. The copy is returned.

The current state will be advanced in a single operation by the equivalent of a number of sequential calls to a method that updates the state of the provider. The size of the jump is implementation dependent.

Repeat invocations of this method will create a series of generators that are uniformly spaced at intervals of the output sequence. Each generator provides non-overlapping output for the length of the jump for use in parallel computations.

The jump size is the equivalent of 2⁵¹² calls to nextLong(). It can provide up to 2⁵¹² non-overlapping subsequences.

Specified by:

jump in interface JumpableUniformRandomProvider

Returns:

A copy of the current state.

Since:

1.3

copy

protected XorShift1024Star copy()

Create a copy.

Returns:

the copy

Since:

1.3
