Examples of org.jamesii.core.math.random.generators.lcg.LCG

• org.jamesii.core.math.random.generators.lcg.LCG
  A general Linear Congruential Generator, adaptable for arbitrary parameters. By default this class behaves the same as the Java {@link java.util.Random}class. The formula used to compute the next pseudo-random number of an LCG is as follows:

  x_n + 1 = a ⋅ x_n + b   (mod c)

  For the default Java RNG the parameters a, b and c are as follows:

  a = 0x5DEECE66D, b = 11, c = 2⁴⁸

  The values can be changes by using the {@link LCG#LCG(long,long,long,long)} constructor but extreme care isadvised as LCGs exhibit very non-random behavior with ill-chosen parameters.

  This class is not recommended for use in simulation for the poor quality of LCGs, other algorithms are better suited and should be used instead. It is mainly intended for experimentation with older results and tests with known bad generators. @author Jan Himmelspach @author Johannes Rössel
