Member Function Documentation

normal() [1/2]

double Random::normal ( )

static

Returns

a random number normally distributed with 0 mean and unitary standard deviation.

Definition at line 24 of file Random.cpp.

normal() [2/2]

double Random::normal ( double  m, double  s  )

static

A normal random number generator.

Parameters

m	is the mean of the gaussian distribution.
s	is the standard deviation of the distribution.

Returns

a random number with normal distribution.

Definition at line 29 of file Random.cpp.

seed()

void Random::seed ( int  seed )

static

Sets the seed of the random number generator.

Parameters

seed	is the new seed of the random number generator.

Definition at line 35 of file Random.cpp.

uniform() [1/2]

double Random::uniform ( )

static

Generates a random number in the range 0 to 1.

Returns

a random floating point number in the range 0 to 1.

Definition at line 18 of file Random.cpp.

uniform() [2/2]

int Random::uniform ( int  min, int  max  )

static

A random number in a specified range.

Parameters

min	is the minimum of the range.
max	is the maximum of the range.

Returns

a random integer in the specified range.
