linear_congruential::operator()
Returns a random value
result_type operator()();
Remarks
The member function generates a new stored_value by applying the recurrence relation to the old value of stored_value.
Example
// std_tr1__random__linear_congruential_operator_fn.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <random>
#include <iostream>
typedef std::mt19937 Myeng;
typedef std::linear_congruential<int, 16807, 0,
(int)((1U << 31) - 1)> Myceng; // same as minstd_rand0
int main()
{
Myeng eng;
Myceng ceng;
Myceng::result_type compval = ceng();
compval = compval; // to quiet "unused" warnings
std::cout << "A == " << Myceng::multiplier << std::endl;
std::cout << "C == " << Myceng::increment << std::endl;
std::cout << "M == " << Myceng::modulus << std::endl;
std::cout << "min == " << ceng.min() << std::endl;
std::cout << "max == " << ceng.max() << std::endl;
ceng.seed(); // reseed base engine
std::cout << "a random value == " << ceng() << std::endl;
std::cout << "a random value == " << ceng() << std::endl;
std::cout << "a random value == " << ceng() << std::endl;
Myceng ceng2(eng); // construct with generator
ceng2.seed(eng); // seed with generator
return (0);
}
A == 16807 C == 0 M == 2147483647 min == 1 max == 2147483646 a random value == 16807 a random value == 282475249 a random value == 1622650073
