public abstract class AbstractWell
extends IntProvider

This abstract class implements the WELL class of pseudo-random number generator from François Panneton, Pierre L'Ecuyer and Makoto Matsumoto.

This generator is described in a paper by François Panneton, Pierre L'Ecuyer and Makoto Matsumoto Improved Long-Period Generators Based on Linear Recurrences Modulo 2 ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, 32, 1 (2006). The errata for the paper are in wellrng-errata.txt.

Constructor Detail

AbstractWell

protected AbstractWell(int k,
                       int[] seed)

Creates an instance with the given seed.

Parameters:

k - Number of bits in the pool (not necessarily a multiple of 32).

seed - Initial seed.

Method Detail

getStateInternal

protected byte[] getStateInternal()

Creates a snapshot of the RNG state.

Overrides:

getStateInternal in class BaseProvider

Returns:

the internal state.

setStateInternal

protected void setStateInternal(byte[] s)

Resets the RNG to the given state.

Overrides:

setStateInternal in class BaseProvider

Parameters:

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