it.unimi.dsi.util.XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

@Deprecated
public class XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator
extends org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

Deprecated.

Please use XoRoShiRo128PlusRandomGenerator instead.

A fast, high-quality pseudorandom number generator that returns the sum of consecutive outputs of a Marsaglia Xorshift generator (described in “Xorshift RNGs”, Journal of Statistical Software, 8:1−6, 2003) with 128 bits of state. It is presently used in the JavaScript engines of Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.

By using the supplied jump() method it is possible to generate non-overlapping long sequences for parallel computations. This class provides also a split() method to support recursive parallel computations, in the spirit of SplittableRandom.

Constructor Detail

XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator

public XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator()

Deprecated.

Creates a new generator seeded using Util.randomSeed().

XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator

public XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator(long seed)

Deprecated.

Creates a new generator using a given seed.

Parameters:

seed - a seed for the generator.

Method Detail

nextLong

public long nextLong()

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextLong in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextLong in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

nextInt

public int nextInt()

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextInt in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextInt in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

nextInt

public int nextInt(int n)

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextInt in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextInt in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

nextLong

public long nextLong(long n)

Deprecated.

Returns a pseudorandom uniformly distributed long value between 0 (inclusive) and the specified value (exclusive), drawn from this random number generator's sequence. The algorithm used to generate the value guarantees that the result is uniform, provided that the sequence of 64-bit values produced by this generator is.

Parameters:

n - the positive bound on the random number to be returned.

Returns:

the next pseudorandom long value between 0 (inclusive) and n (exclusive).

nextDouble

public double nextDouble()

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextDouble in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Specified by:

nextDouble in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

nextFloat

public float nextFloat()

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextFloat in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextFloat in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

nextBoolean

public boolean nextBoolean()

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextBoolean in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextBoolean in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

nextBytes

public void nextBytes(byte[] bytes)

Deprecated.

Specified by:

nextBytes in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextBytes in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

jump

public void jump()

Deprecated.

The jump function for this generator. It is equivalent to 2⁶⁴ calls to nextLong(); it can be used to generate 2⁶⁴ non-overlapping subsequences for parallel computations.

split

public XorShift128PlusRandomGenerator split()

Deprecated.

Returns a new instance that shares no mutable state with this instance. The sequence generated by the new instance depends deterministically from the state of this instance, but the probability that the sequence generated by this instance and by the new instance overlap is negligible.

Returns:

the new instance.

setSeed

public void setSeed(long seed)

Deprecated.

Sets the seed of this generator.

The argument will be used to seed a SplitMix64RandomGenerator, whose output will in turn be used to seed this generator. This approach makes “warmup” unnecessary, and makes the probability of starting from a state with a large fraction of bits set to zero astronomically small.

Specified by:

setSeed in interface org.apache.commons.math3.random.RandomGenerator

Specified by:

setSeed in class org.apache.commons.math3.random.AbstractRandomGenerator

Parameters:

seed - a seed for this generator.

setState

public void setState(long[] state)

Deprecated.

Sets the state of this generator.

The internal state of the generator will be reset, and the state array filled with the provided array.

Parameters:

state - an array of 2 longs; at least one must be nonzero.

main

public static void main(String[] arg)

Deprecated.
